Mervyn Mitton Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Hello - para38. Sorry, I can't help you - however, welcome to GMIC. When you say the Angletaire - does that mean British - as opposed, to Canadian Govt. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter monahan Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) If you mean British medals awarded for campaigns in Canada, there were four: The Military General Service Medal with various bars for battles in the War of 1812 The Naval General Service Medal also with various bars for ship actions in the War of 1812 The North West Rebellion Medal for the Riel rebellion [1885] The Canadian Military General Service Medal [1860-1866] with various bars for the Fenian Raids in the period 1860-1866 and the first Riel rebellion [1870] plus the various British medals Canadians qualified for in various colonial campaigns: the Egypt Medal; The Queen's and King's South Africa medal and the various mmedals for the two World Wars and Korea. Canada also used the British orders and gallantry decorations until quite recently, so the VC, DSO, MC and so on were awarded to Canadians until well after the Korean War. Hope this helps Peter Edited March 7, 2010 by peter monahan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
