In my original post I queried whether a drone operator, far from the action, would qualify for a campaign medal. The immediate response was negative but I suggest the issue is not clear cut. Allow me to postulate the following scenario. An operator of a killer drone, flying it far from the action is particularly successful in destroying a number of enemy drones whilst evading attempts by the enemy to destroy his own drone. How might this be officially recognised? Certainly not by an award of an AFC. By a DFC? But how can this be reconciled without a campaign medal?
Doughnut & Bar seems poor recognition.
