Notability?

I'm very skeptical about the notability of this medal. Göta luftvärnskår ("Göta air defence corps") was the name of a Swedish army air defence "regiment" 1994-2000 (a predecessor of Luftvärnsregementet), a unit which not have been in battle. Calling it a "decoration" gives a strange impression; most likely it's a local medal handed out to commemorate good services during the unit's existence under this period. Hardly worth an article, in my opinion, could possible be mentioned briefly in the regiment's article. And I seriously question the authority of a local (former) regiment to confer a decoration on foreign military personnel, this kind of decisions tend to be taken centrally.
