The Allied Subjects' Medal was a British decoration, distributed by the Foreign Office, to citizens of allied and neutral countries who gave assistance to British and Commonwealth soldiers, mainly escaped prisoners of war, behind enemy lines between 1914–1918.

[2] Originally instituted in 1920, delays caused by discussions within Government on the precise form and design of the award meant that it was only manufactured and distributed in 1922.

The obverse bears the left facing bare headed effigy of King George V with the inscription "GEORGIVS V BRITT: OMN: REX ET IND: IMP:".

The reverse shows a female allegory of Humanity offering a cup to a British soldier resting on the ground, with ruined buildings in the background.

The 25 millimetres (1.0 in) wide ribbon, which incorporates the French and Belgian national colours, is red with a light blue centre, flanked by stripes of yellow black and white.
