Chapter and verse official guide to qualifying areas and dates for the various WW2 campaign stars and medals for army requirements. A valuable compilation for establishing medal entitlements. This is one of the most useful guides that any medal collector can own. From the humble Private in the Home Guard to the highest rank - Field Marshal, these stars and medals were issued in their tens of thousands, giving scope for much blundering, mischievous self-awarding or fraudulent upgrading. Invaluable when verifying entitlement of awards in WW2 group medals, or perhaps reconstructing a group around a named medal(s) or original certificates, a memorial scroll or paperwork. These are the official detailed 1948 regulations for army requirements that cover not just the stars and defence and war medals but the clasps as well. Many WW2 sets of medals have been 'made up' by recipients or ill-informed dealers and collectors since the 1950s - this publication will give the opportunity to correct the unintentional misawarding of these unnamed awards, that are now at long last becoming very collectable.
