Thank you Defence HQ for a good decision. Now, is there any chance that you could have a look at a couple of other related matters that many people think important, specifically:
- Some form of differentiation on the medal ribbon to indicate the difference in threat, risk and rigour undertaken by that individual. Perhaps that might ameliorate some of the earlier posters. Perhaps a HELMAND bar, or something?
- Something to indicate repeated tours? I am sure that there are plenty of guys now on their fourth (in-the-field) 6-monther, and I know a couple of RAF types on their 8th op det.
- Battle Honours with right of emblazonment for unit Standards/Colours etc?
Just a thought...
