Combatant's Cross

The Combatant's Cross is a French decoration that recognizes, as its name implies, those who fought in combat for France. The Poilus of World War I worked toward recognition by the government, of a special status to those who had participated in the bitter fighting of 1914–1918. The law of 19 December 1926 created la "carte du combatant", or combatant's card, for veterans of 1914–1918, as well as for the veterans of the Franco-Prussian War (1870–1871) and colonial wars before the First World War. The decoration was created only three years later by the law of 28 June 1930.
