Awards

The Defense Intelligence Agency and subordinate organizations within the Agency have been awarded numerous Joint Meritorious Unit Awards (JMUAs). These are awarded in the name of the Secretary of Defense to joint activities for meritorious achievement or service in war, during crises, or under extraordinary circumstances that involve national interests. The awards reflect the distinctive accomplishments of the personnel assigned to the Defense Intelligence Agency.
