The Redbird was a badge award to all military personnel of the Alliance to Restore the Republic who were wounded while fighting. The badge consisted of the Rebel Alliance starbird held by a red ribbon with white stripes on the sides. The Redbird could also be awarded multiple times, with each time the recipient being given a small starbird pin placed vertically in the middle of the ribbon.[1]
