EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a striking display of war ribbons from the British Army during World War I. Dating back to 1916, these principal war ribbons represent the rich history and valor of the British military from the mid-19th century up until the Great War. At the center of the photograph, the dark red ribbon of the Victoria Cross stands proudly. Established in 1856, the Victoria Cross is the highest military decoration awarded for valor in the face of the enemy to the British and its allies. The cross is adorned with a crown and the motto "For Valour" inscribed on the reverse. Surrounding the Victoria Cross, various other ribbons depict the diverse medals earned by British soldiers during this period. The ribbons display a vibrant array of colors, each representing a unique medal and the specific campaigns or conflicts in which they were awarded. For instance, the blue ribbon with a white stripe signifies the Military Cross, while the green ribbon with a Maltese cross represents the Distinguished Conduct Medal. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the British military during the 1850s and World War I. Each ribbon tells a story of courage, honor, and bravery, making this collection an essential piece of military history.
