Medal for Long Service and Good Conduct (South Africa)
The Medal for Long Service and Good Conduct (South Africa) is a distinctive South African version of the British Medal for Long Service and Good Conduct (Military). It was awarded to members of the Permanent Force of the Union of South Africa who had completed eighteen years of reckonable service.〔(South African Medal Website - Union Defence Forces (1939-52) ) (Accessed 3 May 2015)〕
The Medal for Long Service and Good Conduct (Military) replaced the Army Long Service and Good Conduct Medal, while the South African and other territorial versions of the new medal replaced the Permanent Forces of the Empire Beyond the Seas Medal that had been institituted in 1910 for award to other ranks of the Permanent Forces of the Dominions and Colonies of the British Empire.〔〔
==Origin==
The United Kingdom's Army Long Service and Good Conduct Medal was instituted by King William IV in 1830. On 31 May 1895 Queen Victoria authorised the institution of territorial versions of the Army Long Service and Good Conduct Medal, as well as of the Distinguished Conduct Medal and the Meritorious Service Medal, for the Dominions and Colonies. In 1910 King George V instituted the Permanent Forces of the Empire Beyond the Seas Medal to replace the territorial versions of the Army Long Service and Good Conduct Medal.〔〔(Stephen Stratford Medals site - British Military & Criminal History - 1900 to 1999 - Army Long Service & Good Conduct Medal ) (Accessed 26 May 2015)〕〔(South African Medal Website – Colonial Military Forces ) (Accessed 6 May 2015)〕〔 (Accessed 26 May 2015)〕
