Ladies, to whom the Military Medal has been awarded and who have not yet furnished particulars of their service, etc., for this Roll, are requested to communicate, without delay, with Lieut.-Colonel J. H. LESLIE, 31, Kenwood Park Road, Sheffield. PREFACE. October, 1918, by N 24 the House of Commons decided 274 votes to 25 that women should be admitted to the Mother of Parliaments. It is only a few years since that the majority of their fellow-countrymen denied with laughter that women were worthy even of the vote. To what is due this astonishing volte-face Surely to the fact that after living for three generations in a hot-house atmosphere of illusions generated in the music-hall, England was suddenly compelled to face the fierce and terrible realities of life. Our country was called upon to fight or die; and it did not take her long to choose her course. From the outbreak of War it was clear that this was not a struggle of Armies against Armies, but of Peoples against Peoples, of Ideals against Ideals, of Organism against Organism.

WW2 Medal Criteria
WORLD WAR 2 GALLANTRY MEDALS George Cross Created 24 September 1940. Recognises acts of extreme bravery carried out by civilians and military personal when not under enemy fire. The act which earns the award must be witnessed by several individuals Named after King George VI, who personally designed many details on the medal inscription reads 'For Gallantry' Distinguished Service Order Awarded to officers who have performed meritorious or distinguished service inWar. The decoration, instituted by Queen Victoria in 1886, entitles recipients to add D.S.O. after their names. Military Cross The Military Cross (MC) is the third-level military decoration awarded to officers and (since 1993) other ranks of the British Armed Forces; and formerly also to officers of other Commonwealth countries. The MC is granted in recognition of "an act or acts of exemplary gallantry during active operations against the enemy on land to all members, of any rank in Our Armed Forces” Distinguished Conduct Medal The oldest British award for gallantry and second only to the Victoria Cross, the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) was awarded to enlisted personnel, non- commissioned officers and warrant officers of any nation, in any branch of the service, for distinguished conduct in battle. Instigated by the British as a means of recognising acts of gallantry performed by 'other ranks' (i.e. non- commissioned officers) Military Medal The Military Medal (or MM) was a medal awarded for exceptional bravery. It was awarded to the Other Ranks (N.C.O.’s and Men) and was first instituted in 25 March 1916 during The First World War, to recognise bravery in battle.

This is dependent upon maintaining a credible and realistic offer that earns and retains the trust of people in Defence. In order to achieve this, all personnel must be confident that, not only will they be treated fairly, but also that their families will be treated properly and that Service veterans and their dependants will be respected and appropriately supported. JSP 761 is the authoritative guide for Honours and Awards in the Armed Services. It gives instructions on the award of Orders, Decorations and Medals and sets out the list of Honours and Awards that may be granted; detailing the nomination and recommendation procedures for each. It also provides information on the qualifying criteria for and permission to wear campaign medals, foreign medals and medals awarded by international organisations. It should be read in conjunction with Queen’s Regulations and DINs which further articulate detailed direction and specific criteria agreed by the Committee on the Grant of Honours, Decorations and Medals [Orders, Decorations and Medals (both gallantry and campaign)] or Foreign and Commonwealth Office [foreign medals and medals awarded by international organisations].

Canada's Victoria Cross
Canada’s Victoria Cross Governor General Gouverneur général of Canada du Canada Pro Valore: Canada’s Victoria Cross 1 For more information, contact: The Chancellery of Honours Office of the Secretary to the Governor General Rideau Hall 1 Sussex Drive Ottawa, ON K1A 0A1 www.gg.ca 1-800-465-6890 Directorate of Honours and Recognition National Defence Headquarters 101 Colonel By Drive Ottawa, ON K1A 0K2 www.forces.gc.ca 1-877-741-8332 Art Direction ADM(PA) DPAPS CS08-0032 Introduction At first glance, the Victoria Cross does not appear to be an impressive decoration. Uniformly dark brown in colour, matte in finish, with a plain crimson ribbon, it pales in comparison to more colourful honours or awards in the British or Canadian Honours Systems. Yet, to reach such a conclusion would be unfortunate. Part of the esteem—even reverence—with which the Victoria Cross is held is due to its simplicity and the idea that a supreme, often fatal, act of gallantry does not require a complicated or flamboyant insignia. A simple, strong and understated design pays greater tribute. More than 1 300 Victoria Crosses have been awarded to the sailors, soldiers and airmen of British Imperial and, later, Commonwealth nations, contributing significantly to the military heritage of these countries. In truth, the impact of the award has an even greater reach given that some of the recipients were sons of other nations who enlisted with a country in the British Empire or Commonwealth and performed an act of conspicuous Pro Valore: Canada’s Victoria Cross 5 bravery.
