Posthumous Awards

Posthumous awards are honors given to individuals after their death, recognizing their achievements, contributions, or bravery. These awards are meant to acknowledge the person's impact, often in fields like military service, arts, or public service, where their actions have stood out. Receiving an award posthumously highlights the lasting significance of their work and ensures their legacy is honored, even if they are no longer alive to receive it. It’s a way of expressing gratitude and respect for their dedication or sacrifice beyond their lifetime.
