Tom Cruise played a U.S. Navy aviator in the “Top Gun” movies, and now he’s being recognized for his on-screen representation of the military branch.
On Tuesday, Cruise was awarded the Navy’s top civilian honor, the Distinguished Public Service Award, for his “outstanding contributions to the Navy and the Marine Corps” through his work in “Top Gun,” “Born on the Fourth of July,” “A Few Good Men” and the “Mission Impossible” franchise. The ceremony took place in London, as Cruise is currently working in the U.K.
Cruise received a medal from U.S. Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro and said he was proud of the “extraordinary acknowledgement.”
“I admire all of the servicemen and women,” Cruise said, according to the Associated Press. “I know in life, something that is very true to me, is that to lead is to serve. And I know that to my core.
