| Obverse description | The central field features a polychrome enamel relief of a Douglas C-47 Skytrain military transport aircraft in flight against a gilt background with a stylised circular motif. The legend DÉBARQUEMENT in large raised letters arches across the upper field, with EN NORMANDIE along the lower field, and the inscription D-DAY / 06.06.1944 appears in the central field beside the aircraft. A peripheral legend around the rim names the five D-Day landing beaches, separated by stars. |
