History

First plain horizontal white-red, on 28 December 1943 a representation of the George Cross proper was added (until 21 September 1964 -day of independence- on a small blue canton). This decoration was awarded by King George VI to the people of Malta to 'bear witness to the heroism and devotion of its people' during the great siege it underwent in the early parts of WW2.
