The Orders and Medals Research Society
The website advises “Our Society exists to promote a general interest in the study of orders, decorations and medals and to actively encourage and publish research into all aspects of civil and military medals, with a particular focus on those issued by Great Britain and the Commonwealth countries. Members' interests range from awards for gallantry in battle, or bravery in saving life, through forgotten wars and far-flung campaigns, to long and meritorious public service away from the limelight. Research interests stretch from pure numismatics, through the military or social history surrounding the circumstances of awards, to the genealogy of the medal recipient".
The Society publishes a Journal and the website provides the September 2006 (Volume 45, number 3(272) issue (88 pages) as a sample together with an Index to Journals 1973-2006 Volumes 12-45 (236 pages). The Index has many references to India.
