The Medal for Combat Merit was a Soviet military decoration awarded for bravery, initiative, and distinguished service in combat. The Medal for the Defence of the Caucasus was awarded to military personnel and civilians who took part in defending the Caucasus region against the German advance during the Second World War, particularly during the crucial campaigns of 1942–1943 on the Eastern Front.
