The Légion d’honneur was established in 1802 by Napoléon Bonaparte. It is France’s highest distinction and is awarded in recognition of both military and civilian merit. On average, just 10 British nationals per year receive the Légion d’honneur.
On the 70th anniversary of D-Day in June 2014, the French President announced that the distinction would be awarded to all British veterans who fought for the liberation of France during the Second World War (veterans must have taken part in military operations in France between 1944 and 1945). Three thousand applications were received in the space of a few months!!
At C & J Medals we are pleased to announce that we can supply both the Full Size and Miniature Legion d'Honneur (chevalier) replacement medals. If you would like to purchase one of these fine medals please contact us for more information
