Medal for Long Service and Good Conduct (Military) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Medal for Long Service and Good Conduct (Military)
The Medal for Long Service and Good Conduct (Military) was instituted by King George V in 1930 and replaced the Army Long Service and Good Conduct Medal as well as the Permanent Forces of the Empire Beyond the Seas Medal. The medal could be awarded to Regular Army warrant officers, non-commissioned officers and men of the British Army. It also had a number of territorial versions for the Permanent Forces of the British Dominions. The eligibility criteria were later relaxed to also allow the award of the medal to officers who had served a minimum period in the ranks before being commissioned.〔(Stephen Stratford Medals site - British Military & Criminal History - 1900 to 1999 - Army Long Service & Good Conduct Medal ) (Accessed 26 May 2015)〕〔(The Real Royal Engineers - The Army Long Service Good Conduct Medal ) (Accessed 2 June 2015)〕 ==Overview== In the complex British honours system, there were distinct awards for officers and men of the Navy, Army and Air Force, and separate awards for the Regular Force or Reserve components. Regular Force officers were not eligible for any long service awards since, as they held a commission, they were expected to serve honourably and for a long period of time. Reserve Force officers were eligible for various long service decorations that granted them the use of post-nominal letters, while Reserve Force other ranks were eligible for various long service and good conduct medals, but without post-nominals.〔(National Defence and the Canadian Forces - Obsolete Long Service Awards ) (Accessed 10 June 2015)〕
