A person can only receive each type of merchant marine decoration or medal once. For a later act that would earn the same medal again, they get a wearable device instead.

An individual may not receive more than one of any type of decoration or medal under this chapter. For each later act or service that would otherwise justify the same medal, the person may instead be given a suitable device to wear with the original decoration or medal.
