Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum evidentiary requirements for the classification. The AAO agreed with the Director that the petitioner's medals did not qualify as a major, internationally-recognized one-time award, and subsequently found that the petitioner only satisfied one of the alternative evidentiary criteria, short of the required three.
