La Croix de George (GC) a \u00e9t\u00e9 cr\u00e9\u00e9e le 24 septembre 1940, par le roi George VI. Elle \u00e9tait d\u00e9cern\u00e9e surtout \u00e0 des civils qui avaient accompli un acte d’h\u00e9ro\u00efsme extr\u00eame ou manifest\u00e9 un courage insigne dans des situations tr\u00e8s p\u00e9rilleuses. Elle n’\u00e9tait remise \u00e0 des militaires que pour des actes qui n’\u00e9taient normalement pas r\u00e9compens\u00e9s par des distinctions honorifiques purement militaires, et ces actes ne devaient pas avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 accomplis devant l’ennemi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La Croix de George est une croix d’argent simple mesurant 1,8 pouce de largeur. Sur l’avers, le centre de la croix est charg\u00e9 d’un m\u00e9daillon circulaire qui montre saint Georges tuant un dragon; le m\u00e9daillon est cern\u00e9 par les mots \u00ab For Gallantry \u00bb (Pour acte de courage).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le ruban est pass\u00e9 dans une barrette droite en argent, orn\u00e9e de feuilles de laurier, d’un seul tenant avec l’\u0153illet du dessous, qui est fix\u00e9 \u00e0 la croix par un petit anneau d’argent pass\u00e9 dans l’\u0153illet du haut de la croix. Le ruban bleu mesure 1,5 pouce de largeur. En petite tenue, on y fixe une croix miniature. Les femmes peuvent pendre leur croix \u00e0 une broche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le nom, le grade et l’arm\u00e9e (num\u00e9ro matricule pour les non-officiers) ainsi que la date de notification dans la London Gazette sont inscrits au revers de la croix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En tout, dix Croix de George ont \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9cern\u00e9es \u00e0 des Canadiens : huit \u00e0 des militaires, une \u00e0 un membre de la marine marchande, et une \u00e0 une femme (voir ci-dessous).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
