Description
An account of the resource
Southern Cross of Honor Medal. This medal was created by the United Daughters of the Confederacy to be given postwar to Confederate veterans who showed valor in battle. The medals were created in 1898 and distributed beginning in 1900.
The back of the medal features a motto of the Confederacy, "Deo Vindice", Latin for "With God as our Vindicator". In addition it features the dates 1861 and 1865, as well as the phrase, "From the UDC to the UCV" (United Daughters of the Confederacy to the United Confederate Veterans).
This medal differs from the medal approved by the Congress of the Confederate States to be distributed by the President to deserving veterans. None of these approved medals were ever awarded.
