The medal is named in honor of Major General Charles Dick, President of the National Guard Association of the United States from 1902 to 1909, a major general in the Ohio National Guard, a Congressman and later a Senator. Dick was responsible for the passage of the Dick Acts of 1903 and 1908 that established the foundation of the modern National Guard.

An individual must have distinguished him/herself over an extended period of time in their support to the National Guard through service in a state or national elected legislative body.”
“[A]n impressive incumbent [who] has pushed for legislative ethics reforms and is committed to restoring the democratic process in the House. We recommend Grier Martin.”
