Additional Notes: The Haitian Campaign Medal (1915) was a U.S. Navy and Marine Corps decoration established on June 22, 1917 to recognize service during the American military intervention in Haiti in 1915. It was awarded to personnel who participated in operations following the outbreak of revolution and civil unrest, which threatened American lives, property, and strategic interests. The qualifying service period covered July 9 to December 6, 1915, during which U.S. forces landed in Haiti to restore order, protect foreign nationals, and stabilize the government. The medal was struck in bronze, featuring a design symbolic of the campaign, and was worn with a distinctive ribbon. This award was separate from the later Haitian Campaign Medal (1919–1920), though some service members qualified for both. It remains a historical recognition of early 20th-century U.S. naval and Marine Corps expeditionary operations in the Caribbean.
