I understand that some campaign medals were available before the war ended, but that others were not available until post-war. I am guessing the same applied to the corresponding ribbons for the ribbon bar.
Does anyone know the date that each campaign medal/ribbon was issued or became available? Which ribbons would have been issued and worn on a medal bar before the end of hostilities? Which ribbons would only have been seen on a ribbon bar post-war?

With these sorts of questions I would strongly suggest that you join the medal forum. To my mind, that would be the correct place for these.
Just copy and paste your question once you join.
