La Croix de Guerre (Cross of War) medal is a Belgium military decoration which was instituted on the 25th October 1915 and awarded to foreign nations for acts of heroism carried out on Belgium soil.
Reginald was awarded the medal on the 5th February 1919 as mentioned in the Daily Orders of the Belgium Army. I an struggling to find the extact reason Reginald was awarded this medal. If these decorations were awarded with a citation, it certainly would have been mentioned in the Daily Orders of the Belgian Army. After the war, a number of honourable decorations were put at the disposal of the foreign military authorities. It was however up to these military authorities to decide who was eligible for these decorations.
