The Cuban Order of Military Merit (Spanish: Orden Mérito Militar) was an order of merit awarded by the Republic of Cuba for military deeds. It was awarded in six categories, which were differentiated by the colours of their ribbon and enamel, similar to its inspiration, the Spanish Order of Military Merit. After the Victory of the Cuban Revolution, the Order was suppressed by Law No. 13.
