French Croix De Guerre Medal - WWII Ribbon

The French Croix de Guerre (Cross of War) is a prestigious French Military award often granted to foreign military forces. Established in 1915, it is conferred either as a unit award or an individual accolade for distinguished service, recognizing acts of heroism during combat with the enemy. In the U.S. military, verifying this award is particularly challenging. This difficulty arises from the fact that foreign awards were not commonly recorded in personal records after World War II, and the process was further complicated by the 1973 fire at the National Archives.
