luckycatfay, A shame that your comment is so offensive, especially towards those who have been awarded it. The medal was never meant to have any intrinsic value and was therefore not made from precious metal. Try thinking before you comment.

it is one of the few galantry awards available to all ranks. they are made from the bronze from the Russian guns captured in the Crimea.

They also took the cannons to bovington camp in the uk and used them to improve our own cannons and they have been doing it in every war since taking equipment and if like that sort of stuff you can visit it the tank museum
