Badge

[edit]

There is no mention here of the badge that replaced the Returned Active Service Badge - worth its own page or simply add here?

http://www.defence.gov.au/Medals/Australian/Badges/Operational-Service-Badge.asp Happy to supply original photos of my own - just wanting guidance on page creation versus addition...

Civilian variant

[edit]

Please refer to Ref. number 3. Nford24 (Want to have a chat?) 01:23, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I did.
It says:
Operational Service Medal – Border Protection
The first service declared for the OSM is the range of border protection operations conducted since 1997. The basic qualifying criteria for the OSM - Border Protection require members of the ADF to have been deployed or force assigned for duty as a member of a declared operation:
a. for a period of not less than an aggregate of 30 days; or
b. completed 30 sorties from a unit assigned to a declared operation, provided that those sorties were conducted over a period of not less than an aggregate of 30 days at a rate of one sortie per day.
As I said: No mention of civilians. Pdfpdf (talk) 11:25, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
(You ought to know me well enough by now to know that I'm not going to make such a statement without being able to back it up with supporting references.)

Update - Governor General - 12/12/2012

[edit]
http://www.gg.gov.au/sites/default/files/files/honours/regulations-updates/20130205165357826.PDF - 11 pages, dated 12/12/12
It is notified for general information that the Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia has approved certain conditions for the award of the Australian Operational Service Medal - Civilian, as detailed in the following Declarations and Determinations: ... conditions for award of the Australian Operational Service Medal (Civilian) with Clasp: 'EAST TIMOR', 'ICAT', 'IRAQ 2003', 'SOLOMON IS II', 'TIMOR-LESTE'
NO mention of current operations like ISAF. Pdfpdf (talk) 14:05, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The above document DOES mention ongoing current operations. For example:
ICAT Clasp: Operation SLIPPER - for the period commenced 20 February 2012:
within the area bounded by:
39°00' North Latitude, 32°00' East Longitude
39°00' North Latitude, 78°00' East Longitude

Update - GG - 12 Feb 2013

http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/C2013G00260 - 12 Feb 2013 - "It is also notified for general information that the Governor-General has approved certain conditions for the award of the: Australian Operational Service Medal – CIVILIAN"
- Not very informative or useful! Pdfpdf (talk) 14:23, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It says very clearly on the defence website that there will be one for civvies. See the thread at WT:MILHIST. Cheerio, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 14:37, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It says very clearly in a number of places that there will be one for civilians. But there is NO mention of civilians being eligible for the OSM for Border Protection.
And there is VERY little information available regarding the OSM for civilians. Pdfpdf (talk) 08:54, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
