Bar to Military Medal

Bar to Military Medal

A bar to the Military Medal was presented until 1993 to holders of the Military Medal in recognition of a further award of the medal for acts of bravery in combat on land.

Not more than 3 bars were conferred on any individual for the same gallantry award.

The Military Medal was replaced by the Military Cross following the harmonisation of the gallantry award system in 1993.
