The Navy Meritorious Civilian Service Award is awarded to civilian employees in the
United States Department of the Navy for meritorious service or contributions resulting in high value or benefits for the Navy or the Marine Corps.[1] It is conferred for a contribution that applies to a local or smaller area of operation or a project of lesser importance than would be warranted for consideration for the
Navy Distinguished Civilian Service Award or the
Navy Superior Civilian Service Award. It is awarded by the local activity head to U.S. Navy employees for service or contributions resulting in high value or benefit to the Department of Navy. The award consists of a certificate and citation signed by the activity head, medal and lapel emblem. The award is the third highest Navy civilian award, ranking just behind the Navy Superior Civilian Service Award, which is itself behind the
Navy Distinguished Civilian Service Award.[2]
