Download British Campaign Medals of the First World War Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Britain has issued medals rewarding war service since at least the early nineteenth century, and increasingly through the period of its imperial expansion prior to 1914, but examples of many of the early types are now scarce. However, few families escaped some involvement with “the Great War” of 1914 18, and many still treasure the medals awarded to their ancestors for wartime service. Today, with a growing interest in British military history and particularly in family history and genealogy, more and more people want to trace their ancestors' past. This book looks in detail at the origin, types and varieties of the British medals awarded for general war service between 1914 and '18, and gives advice on researching the awards and their recipients.

Download Campaign and Service Credits for World War One Service Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In addition to giving both the initial campaign credits (that many soldiers used when applying for their victory medals) as well as the official amended campaign and service credits published in War Department General Orders (W.D.G.O.s), this book explains the process for awarding campaign credits and how this changed due to our experiences in WWI. Many historians and collectors are not aware that prior to WWI, battle participation was recognized by engraved silver bands on the flagstaff of unit colors. Our current system of colored campaign streamers is a direct outgrowth of WWI, and the evolution of this system is illustrated with images of original documents as well as numerous photographs from the National Archives.

Instituted in March 1916 as an award for NCOs and men of the Army for acts of bravery. Later extended to women who showed bravery under fire. There was also a provision for the award of a bar for each further act of bravery. All MMs issued to British personnel are named, usually in impressed capitals, During the First World War some 115,000 awards were made, with 5,800 first bars and 180 second bars. There was one award of the MM and three bars. All issued MMs have a notification in the London Gazette. It is rare to find a citation for the Military Medal in the Gazettes It is possible that the reasons for the award will be found in the war diary of the man's unit. (available @ http: //www.nmarchive.com/ and on CD-ROM ). Also some details can appear in Regimental Histories and very rarely an original Divisional citation document that was given to the recipient will have survived. This register does NOT include Imperial troops, and Navy personnel.
