Bonjour a tous,

I noticed Medaille de la Vaillance de Djibouti in the book La Medaille Coloniale by Jean Hass in page 140.
Can anyone give me any information about this medal ?
When was it founded ? How widely it has been awarded to French soldiers?
Who is the manufacturer?
Does anyone have a good photo of it?

Cordialement, Harri

Hello,

This is a scan of Etoile de la Vaillance,like in the book of Jean Hass.

28 french soldiers ( 7 from foreign legion )Have recieved this médal in 1991 for:
"contribution au succès de l'opération ayant permis de maitriser l'arrivée massive des ressortissants ethiopiens entre le 26 mai et le 2 juin 1991."

Cette citation comporte l'attribution de la médaille de la vaillance avec étoile d'argent.

In french in the text of citation from Ministère de la Défense of Djibouti

I have no more informations. I don't who is the manufacturer.

Cordialement
