Description

Description
English: Introduced in July 2009, the Elizabeth Cross, and a Memorial Scroll is issued to the families of Service personnel who have died on operations or as a result of terrorist action since 1st January 1948.

This is not a posthumous medal for the fallen, but is tangible national recognition for their families in recognition of their tragic loss and sacrifice.

The Elizabeth Cross is made of hallmarked silver and is in the form of a cross with a laurel wreath passing between the arms. The arms of the cross bear floral symbols representing England (Rose), Scotland (Thistle), Ireland (Shamrock) and Wales (Daffodil). The centre of the cross bears the Crowned Cypher of Her Majesty The Queen. The reverse of the cross will be engraved with the name of the Service person in whose memory it is granted.

A miniature version of the Elizabeth Cross will also be granted. Both will be presented in a black leather-style presentation box with the Royal Cypher on the lid and the Royal Coat of Arms on the inner silk lining.
