- THE MEDALS FOR BRAVERY
These medals, inherited from the Austria-Hungaria era,
were originally instituted on 14 April 1939 (gold, large silver, small silver and bronze)
for award to non-commissioned officers and men and on 12 September 1942 the Gold Medal for
Bravery for Officers was added.
The obverse shows the bust of the Regent, Admiral Miklos
Horthy, the reverse the arms of Hungary with St. Stephen's crown above and crossed swords
behind the shield. The reverse inscription reads "VITEZSEGERT".
