"For Valour" The decoration is a bronze cross pattée, bearing the crown of Saint Edward surmounted by a lion, and the inscription "FOR VALOUR."This was originally to have been "FOR THE BRAVE", until it was changed on the recommendation of Queen Victoria, as it implied that not all men in battle were brave, because not all men were presented the Victoria Cross.
