A rare medal authorized by the United States Congress in 1928 to honor Charles Lindbergh following his nonstop solo flight from New York to Paris in May 1927 aboard the Spirit of St. Louis. This achievement marked the first successful solo transatlantic flight and transformed aviation from a dangerous experimental pursuit into a credible means of long-distance travel and international connection. At the time, Congress rarely issued medals to civilians, making this award especially notable.
