What is "doubly decorated"?

What is "doubly decorated" and how to understand "recognize" in the following article?

Hi.
Attached photos are an excerpt from TOEIC test sample.
(Sorry, it's too long to type all of them.)

In the article, I can't understand these words I underlined:
doubly decorated,
double achievement,
milestone,
and recognize.
And I can't answer the 200 question.

Could you tell me, please?

Why is (A) wrong for Question 200? She got "double decorated".
