Riflemen's Star

Riflemen's Star (Lithuanian: Šaulių žvaigždė) is a decoration bestowed by the Minister of National Defence of the Republic of Lithuania.

The star is awarded to distinguished members of the Lithuanian Riflemen's Union, other citizens of Lithuania and foreign countries for merits to the Riflemen's Union and the Republic of Lithuania.

It consists of three petal-shaped rays, resembling a lily, coated in green enamel, upon a silver sun.

The top middle vertical ray depicts the Cross of the Jagiellons, one of the varieties of the Cross of Lorraine found on the coat of arms of Lithuania and used by the Riflemen's Union as its logo.

People awarded with Riflemen's Star have the right to wear it on the uniform as well as civilian clothing.
