La Croix de Victoria porte le nom de la reine Victoria (1819-1901) qui a acc\u00e9d\u00e9 au tr\u00f4ne en 1837, alors qu’elle \u00e9tait adolescente, et qui a r\u00e9gn\u00e9 pendant 64 ans jusqu’\u00e0 sa mort, \u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de 81 ans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En 1854, la Grande-Bretagne a pris part \u00e0 la guerre de Crim\u00e9e contre la Russie. En 1856, la reine Victoria et ses conseillers ont cr\u00e9\u00e9 une m\u00e9daille pour r\u00e9compenser d’une fa\u00e7on sp\u00e9ciale les personnes qui avaient accompli des actes exceptionnels de bravoure et de courage au combat. C’est cette m\u00e9daille qui est devenue la Croix de Victoria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Il fut d\u00e9cid\u00e9 que la Croix de Victoria pourrait \u00eatre d\u00e9cern\u00e9e aux militaires de tous les grades qui, dans les forces arm\u00e9es, auraient fait preuve d’une bravoure insigne, d’une vaillance empreinte d’audace ou d’\u00e9clat, d’abn\u00e9gation ou d’un attachement extr\u00eame au devoir face \u00e0 l’ennemi. La reine a d\u00e9cern\u00e9 les premi\u00e8res Croix de Victoria en 1857 \u00e0 des militaires qui s’\u00e9taient distingu\u00e9s par leur bravoure en 1854 pendant la guerre de Crim\u00e9e. La d\u00e9coration a la forme d’une croix de Malte. Au centre se trouve la couronne royale sur laquelle un lion monte la garde. Sous la couronne sont inscrits deux mots simples : \u00ab FOR VALOUR \u00bb (Pour bravoure).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La date o\u00f9 l’acte de bravoure a \u00e9t\u00e9 accompli est grav\u00e9e au revers de la croix. Depuis 1857, ann\u00e9e o\u00f9 les premi\u00e8res croix ont \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9cern\u00e9es, elles sont faites du bronze tir\u00e9 d’un des canons pris aux Russes par les Britanniques pendant la guerre de Crim\u00e9e. La croix est fix\u00e9e au ruban par une barrette droite (orn\u00e9e de feuilles de laurier). Le grade, le nom et le r\u00e9giment du r\u00e9cipiendaire de la d\u00e9coration sont grav\u00e9s au dos de la barrette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quand la reine Victoria a d\u00e9cern\u00e9 la d\u00e9coration pour la premi\u00e8re fois en 1857, certains rubans \u00e9taient bleu fonc\u00e9 (pour la Marine), et certains, rouge cramoisi (pour l’Arm\u00e9e). Apr\u00e8s la Premi\u00e8re Guerre mondiale, on a adopt\u00e9 une seule et m\u00eame couleur pour tous les rubans : le rouge cramoisi. En tout, 1\u00a0351 Croix de Victoria ont \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9cern\u00e9es, dont 99 \u00e0 des Canadiens et 13 \u00e0 des personnes qui avaient un lien avec le Canada. Parmi les 99 croix remises \u00e0 des Canadiens, 10 l’ont \u00e9t\u00e9 avant la Premi\u00e8re Guerre mondiale, y compris cinq en Afrique du Sud; 73 ont \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9cern\u00e9es pour des actes de vaillance accomplis pendant la Premi\u00e8re Guerre mondiale et 16 pour des actes de courage accomplis au cours de la Deuxi\u00e8me Guerre mondiale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
