Hello All,


The Belgian Orders with gold stripe(s) on the ribbon


The Belgian orders with gold stripe(s) on ribbon were instituted following a Royal Decree dated 24 June 1919, which stipulated a number of alterations with which to reward civilians for their services during the World War : if awarded for an act of exceptional bravery and the recipient was mentioned in the nation's Order of the Day for it, the ribbon was to have gold thread edges and a gold star, If for an act of bravery of a lesser degree which didn't warrant the Order of the Day mention, the gold star was omitted from the ribbon but the gold stripes remained. If for distinguished services during the hostilities, a central gold thread stripe was woven into the ribbon. If for highly distinguished services in war welfare work, a silver star was worn on the ribbon. In 1946 a decree was issued to make these distinctions also available for similar acts or services during WWII.




Cheers,
Hendrik
