Groups

There were five campaign medals available for individuals who saw service in the First World War.  An individual, male or female, could be issued with a maximum of three of these medals, although there are a small number of exceptions to the rule.

Service medals were issued automatically to other ranks, but officers or their next of kin had to apply for them.  Medals were impressed with the name of the recipient and usually included some or all of the following: service number, rank, first name or initial, surname and military unit (Regiment or Corps).  This was either on the rim of the medal or in the case of a star, on the reverse.

In addition to the five campaign medals a badge was available of officers and men who had been honourably discharged or had retired as a result of sickness or wounds from war service.
