I have and LS&GCM received as an officer as I had 12yr airman's service and completed the 15 while an officer. Although I served from 62 to 2000 I was resigned to that being my only medal, but received 2 NATO medals during my last tour at AFSOUTH. The qualification for those was 30 days in theatre or 3 months in the HQ where I was. So, a pretty insignificant collection, but Nugget is quite right about the effect. Whenever I attended the remembrance service at a local village church myself and a retired brigadier where singled out to take the collection.
