Product Information
Specification
Belgium: WW2 Commemorative Medal for the 
Campaign in Africa (African War Medal), 1940-
1945. 
With Clasps "Birmanie" (Burma) and "Moyen 
Orient" (Middle East). 
Signed by the sculptor Arthur Dupagne.
The medal was established in 1947 and was 
awarded to the personnel of the Belgian Armed 
Forces who served in Africa at least 1 year 
between 1940 - 1945 (period of the German 
invasion and occupation of Belgium). 
The Belgian forces besides defending the Belgian 
Colonies of Congo or Ruanda/Urundi served also 
in Madagascar, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Libya, Egypt, 
Sudan and Palestine. 
The Burma clasp shows that the medal was 
awarded to a member of the 10th Casualty 
Clearing Station (10 CCS) - a medical unit from 
the Belgian Congo which served alongside the 
British forces during the invasion of Madagascar 
and in the Far East during the Burma Campaign, 
until 1945.
Note that the strength of the 10 CCS was just 
370 personnel so this is a very scarce bar.
