Footnote: “The Air Force Cross (AFC) is a military decoration awarded to officers, and since 1993 other ranks, of the British Armed Forces, and formerly also to officers of the other Commonwealth countries. It is granted for “an act or acts of exemplary gallantry while flying, though not in active operations against the enemy”. A bar is added to the ribbon for holders who are awarded a further AFC. The award was established on 3 June 1918, shortly after the formation of the Royal Air Force (RAF).” [Wikipedia]
