United Kingdom – The Queen’s Gallantry Medal has been the United Kingdom’s third level award for bravery, after the George Cross and the George Medal, since 1974. ‘For Exemplary Bravery’ is the only study of the Queen’s Gallantry Medal to have been published. At the heart of this unique book are the stories of extraordinary bravery that earned the Queen’s Gallantry Medal on 1,044 occasions. All of its recipients are listed and all of the published citations are included, with explanatory notes, personal recollections from many of the recipients, and the details of their other awards and medals. Also included are citations never before published. Thirteen appendices provide first-hand accounts of the events behind some of the acts of bravery—bomb disposal, rescuing others from the sea and from fire, and even repelling pirates in the Indian Ocean.
