Ukrainian war medals

In the UK, you may ACCEPT whatever you like but you need permission to WEAR it... although this really only applies to service personnel wanting to wear foreign awards in uniform. Technically anyone should request permission to wear but it isn't enforced.

Yes different countries have different wordings on rules for this matter and how they are enforced, I’m just saying that it might be that the VGO Kraina doesn’t really want to bother hiring a Polish a British a Spanish an Italian a German etc lawyer to explain them the particularities of local laws, and they just don’t publish the data if there’s any regulations that may or may not hinder the receiver of the award from wearing/accepting the award

 

You and I may say ‘Kraina’ is not an organisation of highest order, but I doubt any Polish court has ever ruled on the issue, and Kraina might just play it safe and not publish the data for certain countries , and if it’s only to save them having to pay a lawyer .

Or in Britain, technically by the wording of law you need permission from the King to accept and wear foreign awards, again , no one enforces that . But an organisation like Kraina certainly doesn’t want to bother with the intricacies of laws in so many countries and just play it safe

My wife and I just received word from the U.S. Embassy in Kyiv that our son Andrew Peters has been awarded the For Our Freedom and Yours medal. Once we receive it in the mail I'll be sure to share some detailed pics of it.
