This is covered in Table 2-1 of AR 672-20, Incentive Awards. it will list the type of awards the commander can issue, and to whom.

Interesting question. I served on a MACOM Civilian Award Board for 3 years when I was a DAC. Never saw a recommendation for a National Guard or Coast Guard member or employee. NG employees are generally state employees, so they probably aren't eligible for Federal Awards. CG civilian employees work for the Dept of Homeland Security. Since they are Federal Employees, the CG civilians might be eligible. Read the criteria carefully.

Sir, many thanks, this is the dilemma I am facing. Trying to articulate what is a Federal Employee, versus State Employee. Further, some of the worthy criteria is done in their spare time as a volunteer (fundraising, general help) that is technically not within their scope of employment, unpaid but above and beyond.
Im finding the policy a little challenging to find the right fit. And based on the help from the earlier mention by SFC, I am thinking of just pushing the Civilian Service Achievement Medal. Whilst a lower award, it is still recognition to demonstrate the appreciation of the value of their extra efforts.
Now have to convince the boss.

I had a 1SG (USAR) that on the civilian side was an RPAC supervisor for my area of units that used their administration. Anyway, a COL awarded her the Civilian version of the ARCOM.
I remember vividly because I was looking at her ribbons on the leadership photos, and wondered "what the hell is that ribbon that looks like an ARCOM but is not an ARCOM".
Anyway, that's how I learned about it.
