United Arab Emirates, Bravery Medal (2), by Spink & Son, 1st Class; 2nd Class; Order of Glory, 1st Type, trial piece by Spink & Son; Order of Achievement, trial piece by Spink & Son; Order of Military Glory, 2nd Class, by Fattorini, each mounted on pin for wear except Achievement Order, overall very fine to extremely fine (5)

The Bravery Medal was awarded to military personnel who perform an act of sacrifice, bravery, or heroism either in combat or general service. This award was replaced in 2009 by the Order of Military Glory.

The Order of Achievement is of a similar design to the Order of Glory but with the Arabic word for 'Achievement' replacing that for 'Bravery'. The Order was rescinded before any awards were issued, and was superseded by the Order of Military Glory and the Bravery Medal.

The Order of Military Glory is the highest military order within the U.A.E. and is awarded to personnel who performed exceptional acts of gallantry or sacrifice. The 2nd Class is bestowed posthumously upon personnel killed during the war and non-warlike operations through the call of duty or with a multi-national force.
