Medals Meaning

Today we had whaea tony came in and show us her great grandfathers and her grandfathers metals and we had to the metals they had they had four each. Then we had to pick out of all those 8 and research about what it means and what it means to them. The thing I had learnt about the medal I picked was that it was a medal you get if you, The United Nations Medal (Korea) was awarded for service during the Korean War (1 July 1950 to 27 July 1953) and for service in the first twelve months following the Armistice (up to 27 July 1954). It was manufactured in the language of each country that participated in the United Nations force in Korea. The Sovereign has given approval for New Zealanders, who meet the eligibility criteria, to accept and wear the United Nations Medal (Korea). Here is a picture of the medal I chose.
