Eligibility

[edit]

The Commanding General's Individual Award may be conferred to any service member of the Texas State Guard by the Commanding General at any Texas State Guard function or activity for exceptional performance, but of a lesser degree than required for award of a higher decoration. The decoration may be conferred by the Commanding General impromptu or through recommendation by unit commanders.[2]
