India General Service Medal, Second Anglo-Burmese War / Second Burma War 1852-1853

This medal was awarded to Colonel George Frederick Stevenson Call. It is one of 17 campaign medals awarded to members of the Call family, now in the museum collection. The medals date from the Peninsular War (1807-1814) to the Great War (1914-1918). The Call family served with the Royal Irish Regiment, which until 1881 was known as the 18th Regiment of Foot. It was also known as the 18th (Royal Irish) Regiment of Foot and the 18th (The Royal Irish) Regiment of Foot. The regiment was disbanded in 1922. The medal was a campaign medal approved in 1854 for issue to officers and men of the British and Indian armies. The medal was issued with the clasp PEGU (a province of Burma) for service between 1852 and 1853. Three wars were fought between the Burmese and British forces resulting in the gradual extinction of Burmese sovereignty and independence. Designed by L.C. Wyon, the obverse of the circular silver medal bears the head of Queen Victoria with the inscription VICTORIA REGINA. The reverse depicts the figure of Victory crowning an armed warrior with a laurel wreath. The rim is inscribed with the recipients name and regiment together with the designers name. The ribbon features vertical stripes of red and dark blue. TRURI : 1931.40.48

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the India General Service Medal, specifically awarded to Colonel George Frederick Stevenson Call during the Second Anglo-Burmese War, also known as the Second Burma War, which took place from 1852 to 1853. The medal holds significant historical value as it is one of seventeen campaign medals bestowed upon members of the esteemed Call family. The Call family's legacy spans several wars, beginning with their service in the Peninsular War and culminating in their involvement in World War I. Serving under different titles such as the Royal Irish Regiment and the 18th (Royal Irish) Regiment of Foot, this brave family played a crucial role in defending British interests. Designed by L. C. Wyon, this circular silver medal features Queen Victoria's head on its obverse side along with her name inscribed as VICTORIA REGINA. On its reverse side lies a remarkable depiction of Victory crowning an armed warrior with a laurel wreath. The recipient's name and regiment are engraved on its rim alongside the designer's name. Accompanied by a ribbon displaying vertical stripes of red and dark blue, this prestigious medal symbolizes not only Colonel George Frederick Stevenson Call's bravery but also marks an important chapter in British history where three wars led to Burmese sovereignty gradually diminishing. Preserved within the museum collection at Royal Cornwall Museum under reference number TRURI : 1931.40.48. , this print captured by Mike Searle serves as a powerful reminder of valorous individuals who dedicated their lives to protecting their nation's interests throughout history.
