Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This substantial and comprehensive book - the definitive authority on its subject - lists the many honours and decorations awarded to the United States Army by Britain's King George VI and later his daughter Queen Elizabeth II to American officers and men serving in the Second World War and the Korean War.Such Honorary Awards to Britain's greatest ally were made on the recommendation of British Commander in the field and cover all grades of awards - with the sole exception of the Victoria Cross, Britain's highest award for gallantry, which is reserved for British or Commonwealth personnel.The author has combed the British National Archives at Kew to find a complete list of awards made by the Army, Royal Navy, and Royal Air Force. The listing of each award comes complete with the original citation.The first awards made to US soldiers were to those attached to the British Army, Corporal Koons and Second Lieutenant Loustalot of the 1st Ranger Battalion, US Army, who were awarded the Military Medal and a Posthumous Mention in Despatches respectively for their actions in the Dieppe raid in August 1942, just eight months after the US entered the war.With the D-day Normandy invasions of June 1944 the number of recommendations for awards shot upwards, and many soldiers were honoured for their role in the liberation of France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and finally Germany itself. Adding the Pacific campaign to the total, the result was over 1,500 awards - all of which are listed in this book.Finally, the list includes Honorary awards made to US War correspondents who reported the Second World war for the folks back home in the USA - including such famous names as 'new York Times' reporter Drew Middleton, and CBS broadcaster Ed Murrow - who both got Honorary OBEs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fully revised second edition of Peter Duckers best-selling guide to military medals. This second edition of Peter Duckers best-selling British Military Medals traces the history of medals and gallantry awards from Elizabethan times to the modern day, and it features an expert account of their design and production. Campaign and gallantry medals are a key to understanding - and exploring - British and imperial military history, and to uncovering the careers and exploits of individual soldiers. In a series of succinct and well-organized chapters he explains how medals originated, to whom they were awarded and how the practice of giving medals has developed over the centuries. His work is a guide for collectors and for local and family historians who want to learn how to use medals to discover the history of military units and the experiences of individuals who served in them.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
