could it be done so that if a unit say took part in the annexation of Italy then it gets a little medal when you look at the units sprite, or when you look at the list?

What about instead giving the experienced units soemthing else than little starts in their bar? For German units, the Iron cross for example, including an event-style message, "unit x praised for examplary conduct in combat" and such?
could it be done?
it gives makes the game feel more real.
for example you cannot tell whether unit A has done thus not knowing if the 20 experience it has is from slider moves or close hand to hand fighting in the streets of Moscow, Stalingrad and lenigrad.
another option would be giving special provinces status so that if a division successfully attacks it then it gets a little symbol.
yet another option is having the ability your self to give the units iron crosses at will because theres a time that we have been willing to kiss a particular unit for sheer brilliance

nice idea
Sounds like a good idea to me, 'battle honours' for divisions. I like the idea of charting the history of your best divisions, remembering what they achieved, where they fought etc. The game does it for your officers, would like to see it for divisions.

Oh boy....simply a superb idea, Acheron. That would give boatloads of flavor, to be sure.
I really, really like it.
If medals are given, I think that would be really cool. You could see how well your troops did on any front, or maybe that fine line between an experinced division and an amazing division.
I picture this little image of a medal, and hovering over it you see a list of medals recieved.
Tank Killer: X amount of tank division victories.
Panzerfaust: Infantry division defeating tank divisions
Medal of honor/ Iron Cross/ Hero of the Soviet Union: 10 victories
Can you picture getting ready to retake France, or fend off the allies with your finest divisions leading the charge?
Heck maybe you could throw in a stat boost for divisions that get such medals.

In a game as the U.S. in HOI 2 Vanilla this would have ben particularly useful. I had one Militia Division holding out in Copenhagen against constant attacks for 9 Months.
good idea...
There may be allso some system of Campaign medals. For example: All units fighting on polish teritory in 39 will have a Polish campaign medal. units figting in North africa could have the Africa medal and so... so you could see where your division was assigned.
Also after some fierce fighting there may be a system which grants you for example 0-10 medals for units that you can assign them (for smaller fighting along borders you could asiign 1 medal, for defeating of stalingrad garrisoned by 8 divs you could have 5 medals and so.
