The 1939–1945 Star is a military campaign medal instituted by the United Kingdom on 8 July 1943 for award to British and Commonwealth forces for service in the Second World War. The Star was awarded for specified periods of operational service overseas between September 1939 and either May 1945 in Europe or September 1945 in the Far East theatre. The broad criteria were 180 days of service between these dates, with more specific criteria depending on service arm. The award of a gallantry medal or Mention in Despatches qualified the recipient for the award of the 1939–1945 Star, regardless of service duration. Two clasps were instituted to be worn on the medal ribbon, Battle of Britain and Bomber Command.
