*This is my conceptual interpretation of the Confederate Medal of Honor*
Although authorized by legislation of the Confederate Congress and approved by President Davis, no Confederate Medals of Honor were ever issued. Financial pressures, metal and other shortages precluded the medal from coming to fruition.
In lieu of such an award, the Confederate Congress instituted a "Roll of Honor" in October 1862. This roll was to list the names of soldiers from each company who were singled out for valor or good conduct displayed during victorious battles. The names were to be selected by vote of the company members. The honor could also be awarded posthumously.
