    The object of presenting medals, stars, and ribbons is to give pride and pleasure to those who have deserved them. At the same time a distinction is something which everybody does not possess. If all have it it is of less value ... A medal glitters, but it also casts a shadow.
    Speech in the House of Commons, March 22, 1944

    This is the only Churchill quote about medals i can find!...

    Hello Gunny
    thank you
    in France, we quote:

    une médaille, ça ne se demande pas, ça ne se refuse pas, ça ne se porte pas

    and I can't find the exactly sentence of Sir Churchill ?

    thanks again
    cordially
