Shan't be signing. Got one medal for my only period of active service during my 12 years, that'll do me. Can't see why anyone would particularly want a medal that everyone else has - seems to defeat the object of medals to me. Smacks of modern school sports days when everyone gets a prize.

On a point of detail it was the Golden Jubilee Medal 2002 which was distributed in the way described - the Silver Jubilee Medal 1977 was awarded very sparingly.
