| Reverse description | The field is dominated by four overlapping colored enamel flags — American, Canadian, British, and French (represented by the Cross of Lorraine) — arranged around a central circular medallion bearing two heraldic lions passant in relief, referencing the Norman coat of arms. The peripheral legend names the five D-Day landing beaches and the date, with 'NORMANDIE' inscribed prominently at the base. |
