A
GROUP of prominent Australians with a grounding in Defence will
explore issues on recognition of ADF service following calls for
an additional medal.
Currently, personnel receive the Defence Long Service Medal after
15 years of service.
Minister Assisting the Minister for Defence Mal Brough said that
following calls for further recognition of service with an additional
medal awarded after two years of Reserve or full-time service,
he would seek advice from a number of experienced Australians
in this field.
