The Russian Government has awarded the Ushakov medal for bravery and courage to World War II veterans from across the world.

The governments of Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the USA have granted permission to the veterans of the Arctic Convoys to be awarded the Ushakov Medal, however the British government has refused permission to our own veterans.
