Korea Medal
The Korea Medal ((フランス語:Médaille de Corée)), sometimes referred to as the Queen's Korea Medal to distinguish it from the United Nations Service Medal, was a campaign medal created in 1951 to recognize troops from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom who had given either one day's service (one sortie) in Korea or 28 days offshore during the Korean War.〔 〕 The medal was physically identical in all countries where it was awarded, save for Canada, where it contained unique elements. As an internationally distributed award, the Korea Medal holds a different place in each country's order of precedence for honours. ==History== The Korean War was the first event in which United Nations (UN) armed forces took on a combat role in suppressing aggression, involving the participation of 20 UN member states, as well as the Republic of Korea and Italy, in a multinational effort to stop the North Korean takeover of the Republic of Korea.〔 The Korea Medal was created in 1951 to recognize specifically members of the militia from King George VI's various states at the time that participated in the Korean conflict;〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=UK Medals > Campaign > Korean War Medals )〕 namely, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. South Africa produced its own version of the Korea Medal.
