British War Medal

British war medal

The medal was awarded to all ranks of Canadian overseas military forces who came from Canada between 5 August 1914 and 11 November 1918, or who had served in a theatre of war. Those who had enlisted in the Overseas Military Forces of Canada (OMFC) in the United Kingdom and had not served in a theatre of war were not entitled to this medal.

The requirements for Royal Air Force (RAF) personnel were the same as for the Army. Naval personnel were required to have 28 days of mobilized service or to have lost their lives before this period of service was complete. Seamen of the Canadian Merchant Marine who served at sea not less than six months, and crews of Dominion Government Ships and the Canadian Mercantile Marine were also eligible.


La médaille a été décernée à tous les militaires canadiens d'outre-mer venus du Canada entre le 5 août 1914 et le 11 novembre 1918, ou ayant servi dans un théâtre de guerre. Ceux qui s'étaient enrôlés dans les forces militaires étrangères du Canada (OMFC) au Royaume-Uni et qui n'avaient pas servi dans un théâtre de guerre n'avaient pas droit à cette médaille.

Les besoins du personnel de la Royal Air Force (RAF) étaient les mêmes que pour l'armée de terre. Le personnel naval devait avoir 28 jours de service mobilisé ou avoir perdu la vie avant la fin de cette période de service. Les marins de la marine marchande canadienne qui ont servi en mer au moins six mois et les équipages des navires du gouvernement fédéral et de la marine marchande du Canada étaient également admissibles.
