Latest revision as of 10:28, 7 September 2020
Military Decorations, Medals and Insignia are military awards which recognize service, position, and personal accomplishments of a soldier while a member of the British Armed Forces. Together with military badges, such awards are a means to outwardly display the highlights of a service member's career.
Generally, a senior officer or cabinet member will approach the designer for new medals. Prominent politician and community member Malta_1990 created all, if not most, of the ribbons up to and including the Amazon Campaign Medal ribbon, after which he became inactive enough that officer John F Baker took up the unofficial role.
Since the demise of the British Armed Forces, medals have generally not been issued, with the exception of the Azores medal of mid-2012.
Insignia Rules of Usage & Display
Service personnel of the British Armed Forces may wear and display a ribbon rack, medals and rank insignia on avatars, wiki pages and other display platforms provided that:
- Rank Insignia: The serviceman currently holds the rank corresponding to the insignia, or held it before voluntary resignation. A serviceman may not wear the insignia of any other rank than their current.
- Military Decorations & Honours: The serviceman has been publicly awarded the decoration or honour. Display of the medal OR the associated ribbon is allowed at any one time.
- Service Ribbons: The serviceman has served for 30 consecutive days in the service branch corresponding to the ribbon.
- Campaign Ribbons: The serviceman has fought in at least one battle for the campaign corresponding to the ribbon as a part of and as directed by the British Armed Forces.
Ribbon Rack Order of Precedence
Ribbon-Racks follow an order of precedence as follows:
- Military Decoration Ribbons by importance, most important first.
- Victoria Cross
- Conspicuous Gallantry Cross
- Distinguished Service Order
- Military Cross
- Service Medal Ribbons by order awarded, oldest first. Affix MID/KCVS pins to the service ribbon corresponding to the branch served in at the time of awarding. The service ribbon does not move position. If a MID and KCVS are both received for the same branch, only the KCVS is displayed.
- Military Campaign Medal Ribbons by order awarded, oldest first.
- Foreign Award Ribbons last (if multiple countries, country precedented by awarding), in that country's order of precedence.
