Simplified Meaning:
People are often motivated by recognition and small rewards, even if they seem insignificant. In the case of soldiers, they will go through tough battles and face dangers because they want to earn medals and ribbons. These medals represent honor, bravery, and the respect of others. For example, in everyday life, employees might work very hard just to get an "Employee of the Month" award. It’s not the physical award that matters, but the acknowledgment and respect that come with it. Similarly, if you want to motivate yourself or others, sometimes offering small tokens of appreciation can go a long way. Giving praise, certificates, or small gifts can inspire people to put in extra effort and stay dedicated.
