the Navy Cross that both Marine Capt. Ademola D. Fabayo and Staff Sgt. Juan J. Rodriguez-Chavez will receive?

You need to study their actions in the conflict in order to understand what they did to earn their rewards. Metals are not given by what conflicts you participated in, but what you did while in that combat. Now the metal of honor is the hardest metal to earn that has to be approved all the way up the chain of command while the final approval must be made by congress, so you know someone has earned it. I am not saying that Sgt Dakota is more heroic than both Capt Fabayo and SSG Rodriguez-Chavez, but most likely, Dakota was placed in a situation that forced him to take more drastic and heroic actions.What is the difference between the Medal of Honor that Marine Sgt Dakota Meyer received today and?
I wasn't there so I cannot say for sure.
