Is there a New Zealand Armed Forces Cross Award given for great bravery?

No, there is no award called the "New Zealand Armed Forces Cross" in the New Zealand honours system.

However, there are several awards for bravery in the New Zealand Armed Forces:

* Victoria Cross (VC): The highest award for gallantry in the face of the enemy, awarded by the British monarch.

* George Cross (GC): Awarded for acts of great bravery in the face of danger, not in combat.

* Distinguished Service Order (DSO): Awarded for distinguished service in war.

* Military Cross (MC): Awarded for acts of bravery in the face of the enemy.

* Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM): Awarded for distinguished conduct in the field.

* Conspicuous Gallantry Cross (CGC): Awarded for acts of conspicuous gallantry.

* Military Medal (MM): Awarded for acts of bravery in the face of the enemy.

* George Medal (GM): Awarded for acts of bravery in the face of danger, not in combat.

* British Empire Medal (BEM): Awarded for meritorious service.

It's important to note that while the New Zealand Armed Forces use the same awards as the UK, they are awarded separately by the Governor-General of New Zealand.
