* Replica of a British, WW2, The Air Crew Europe Star Medal, with Ribbon*

The Air Crew Europe Star medal is a World War II campaign medal awarded to RAF and Commonwealth aircrew who flew operationally from UK bases over Europe between September 3, 1939 and June 4, 1944.

Campaign medals were instituted by the United Kingdom on 8 July 1943 - the first being the 1939–43 Star (later named the 1939–1945 Star) and the Africa Star. By May 1945, a total of eight campaign stars and nine clasps had been instituted by the United Kingdom to acknowledge wartime service. Later additions included the Arctic Star and the Bomber Command Clasp, introduced on 26 February 2013. A maximum of six campaign stars could be awarded to any individual, with certain clasps signifying eligibility for additional stars. However, only one clasp could be worn on each campaign star.
