No, sorry there is no mention yet in the book for the second Gulf War. I have the year book for 2005 so maybe it will be in the 2006 edition. Sorry I cannot help any further....Janine

Hi, that sounds like the medal for the 1st Gulf War. Is there anything for the 2nd one (2003)????

Hi Heather, The book has details of the Gulf Medal that was issued in 1992 for the campaign in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia 1990-1991. If this is what you are looking for let me know. Janine

Here's one link which is a start: http://www.stephen-stratford.*co.uk/uk_medals.htm (remove *) But it doesn't seem to go as modern as your later post suggests you're after. Christine

Hi Heather, There is a great book called THE MEDAL YEARBOOK. It shows pictures of each medal awarded from 1805-2002. It also tells you how many were awarded and to which regiment. It will also tell you the current market value. I have this years copy so if you are looking for anything in particular let me know and I will look it up for you. Hope this helps......Janine ps The book is normally available at WH Smith and is priced at £ 17.95

Hello. Does anyone know of a website that provides detailed information on all British War Medals, like an encylopedia or similar? I've tried doing several searches, but all I seem to get are war medals being sold on ebay and other such auction sites!!!
