Comments: Awarded to Noncommissioned Officers and men of the Army (including Royal Flying Corps and Royal Naval Division) for individual or associated acts of bravery that did nor merit the Distinguished Conduct Medal.

The Military Cross has replaced this medal, which is now available to officers and other ranks.
