Lists of Victoria Cross recipients are lists of people who have been awarded the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious of the orders, decorations, and medals of the United Kingdom. It is awarded for valour "in the presence of the enemy" to members of the British Armed Forces. It was previously awarded to Commonwealth countries, most of which no longer recommend British honours. The lists are organized alphabetically, by military branch or service, by conflict, by nationality and by other criteria.
