I don't think he ever served.  There are actually relatively presidents that are old enough to have fought in World War I, or a later war.  Valor medal are usually given only for actions involving contact with an enemy.
Hope you noticed the smiley. Silent Cal was the most unlikely I could think of.

Now, who won the highest valor award during his lifetime?  And this is surprising.
What's so surprising? George H. W. Bush - Distinguished Flying Cross
If that's correct, it is not surprising at all. He would have been my guess if J. J. hadn't said the answer was "surprising".

Andrew Jackson dueled at least 13 people, so was one of them a minor?
I doubt he dueled a girl Wink
