Never heard of an "Air Force Medal of Honor"....There is just the "Medal of Honor".

No, each branch of service has its own medal. Very similar, but different.

actually, I think he was supposed to get the Air Force Cross....there is only one Congressional Medal of Honor, but as RoughDobermann points out, the actual medal varies for each service.

The medal designs are different, yes, but the award is identical. There is no such thing as an "Air Force Medal of Honor." There is only a Medal of Honor.
