British WW2 Atlantic Star Medal
British WW2 Atlantic Star Medal
The Atlantic Star was to commemorate the Battle of the Atlantic which took place between 3rd September 1939 and 8th May 1945, while Allied convoys transporting goods and valuables from America and the colonies were under attack by German U-boats. The medal was granted for ‘six months’ afloat in the Atlantic, Home Waters, parts of the South Atlantic, and convoys to Russia.
Awarded to personnel of the Royal Navy and Merchant Navy, provided they had earned the 1939-45 Star for six months service in operational areas. The locations and areas differ from the Royal Navy and Merchant Navy to qualify for this campaign medal. Special conditions apply to govern this award for those Naval personnel entering service less than six months before the end of the qualifying period, provided it was the last operational theatre that they would serve.
To clarify, these medals are MoD approved reproductions of the genuine issue medals and can be issued without reservation or application. The original genuine medals can only be issued through application to the MoD/ UK government.
