Miniature 1st Army Bar

The 1st Army Miniature Clasp was awarded for service with the 1st Army between 8 November 1942 and 12 May 1943. The first army were formed to command the British and American land forces as part of Operation Torch in Morocco and Algeria.

This miniature bar can only be worn on the WWII Africa star. On the ribbon bar this may be represented by a silver number 1 numeral. 

The miniature replica clasp is gold in colour to match the medal and bears the words "1ST ARMY". The ribbon is placed through the middle of the clasp and it is slid down to sit just above the top of the medal suspension ring on the ribbon. There is no need to stitch or fix the miniature clasp in place.
