WW2 Arctic Star Medal

The Arctic Star is awarded for operational service of any duration north of the Arctic circle from the outbreak of war on the 3rd September 1939 until VE day on the 8th May 1945. Whilst the primary intent is to recognise those who served on the Arctic Convoys, eligibility is extended to include all who served north of the Arctic Circle in World War Two. Those eligible will include members of all three Services as well of course as the Merchant Navy who crewed the ships taking the vital supplies to Russia. The Arctic star was issued retrospectively from March 2013.
