The first Victoria Cross ceremony took place on June 26th 1857. In 2009, the last Saturday in June was designated British Armed Forces Day. The British Army distinguished itself most prominently during the Second World War, when following the surrender of France, Britain and the Commonwealth remained Germany’s only adversaries for a full year. After the Second World War, Britain primarily fought as part of coalition forces, but the Falklands War vividly demonstrated its military effectiveness.
