BURKINA FASO

Médaille d’honneur de la police

[OCSredleg]

So, I'm doing some research on this subject. The Grande Chancellerie des Ordres Burkinabè has a website. On the website there is a page that lists the decrees by which these medals are created (https://www.gcob.gov.bf/decorations). I had thought that this was merely aspirational as it is a big list:

·       ORDER OF THE STALLION

·       ORDER OF BURKINABÉ MERIT

·       MEDAL OF HONOR OF THE MILITARY

·       MILITARY MEDAL

·       MEDAL OF HONOR OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS

·       MEDAL OF HONOR OF FIRE FIGHTERS

·       MEDAL OF HONOR OF CUSTOMS

·       MEDAL OF HONOR OF PRISONS SECURITY

·       MEDAL OF HONOR OF WATER AND FORESTRY

·       MEDAL OF HONOR OF POLICE

·       COMBATANT’S CROSS

·       COMMEMORATIVE MEDAL FOR SECURITY PERSONNEL

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR ARTS, LETTERS, AND COMMUNICATION

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR COMMERSE AND INDUSTRY

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR RURAL DEVELOPMENT

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR ECONOMY AND FINANCE

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR JUSTICE AND HUMAN RIGHTS

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR YOUTH AND SPORTS

·       ORDER OF MERIT OF ACADEMIC PALMS

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL ACTION

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AND LABOR

·       ORDER OF MERIT FOR TRANSPORT, INFRASTRUCTURE, URBAN PLANNING AND LIVING ENVIRONMENT

But seems to be genuine based on the postings to this thread...

 

thanks all for this great information

Magic, thank you. I'm always looking for decrees and such.
