The script stands out in high relief while the leaf ornamentation is slightly lower. Bordered at both the top and bottom edges in bright, golden yellow, rayon Russian braiding.
Overall condition is very good with an overall length of 445mm.
The "Kreta", (Crete), Cufftitle was the first in a series of four campaign awarded Cufftitles and was introduced on October 16TH 1942, for award to personnel who participated in the successful assault on the Greek Mediterranean island of Crete from May 20TH to June 1ST 1941.
