Introduced in 1918 as an award for bravery in the field, the
Military Medal was almost immediately open to women. During its 80
year existence, the Military Medal was awarded to women on only 146
occasions, the vast majority during the First World War. This
volume provides the definitive roll of recipients together with
citations, many of which were not available at the time, plus
service and biographical detail. Over 80% of the entries are
accompanied by a photograph. The vast majority of the recipients
were British, but the medal was open to women of all nationalities
and the names of French and United States recipients are recorded
together with allied personnel from the Empire.
