  • 新西兰维多利亚十字勋章(英語:Victoria Cross for New Zealand,简称VC)是一种旨在奖励“面对敌人”时有英勇表现的新西兰军人的军事勋章。可以授予任何级别军衔军人或是听从军事指挥的平民,由新西兰总督在惠灵顿的总督府举行的仪式上授予。作为新西兰针对英勇行为的最高奖励,维多利亚十字勋章的优先级要高于该国其它任何勋衔和奖章。 新西兰维多利亚十字勋章于1999年设立,该国这年建立了一套新的授奖系统来用新西兰的奖项取代原有的多项英联邦荣誉。截止2013年11月上旬,这一奖项还只授予过一次,于2007年7月2日颁发给威利·阿皮雅塔(Willie Apiata)下士,奖励他在2004年的一次行动。 原来的维多利亚十字勋章是由维多利亚女王于1856年引入,旨在奖励克里米亚战争中的英勇行为。该勋章前后共25次授予给24位新西兰军人,其中上尉曾于第二次世界大战期间两次获奖。二战结束后,新西兰军人一共只获得过14枚维多利亚十字勋章。该奖章由青铜制成,据称来源于塞瓦斯托波尔围城战期间被缴获的武器,但多位历史学家都对此提出了质疑。起初所有英联邦国家的获奖者获得的都是同样的奖章,但从二十世纪九十年代开始,多个英联邦国家相继建立了独立的授勋系统,其中有三个仍然将“维多利亚十字”几个字保留在其最高英勇奖章的名称中。 (zh)
