No objections to any of those in the past week so I’ll announce them, send the PMs and update the awards master list now.
PMs sent, I’m going to do a wholesale clean up of the medals awarded thread to clarify who has what (do it as a list of members with awards against their name rather than a long thread - too confusing otherwise).
No spam killer one. Nick already has both, while myself and George don’t have the “Site Defense” Medal so I’ll announce those as well.

Paul, you may want to add the “loyal member” awards to the mods as well.
I had the award previously, so I photoshopped an oak leaf cluster to it.
If anyone else had the award previously you’re welcome to copy and paste mine.

Funny, I got a PMs today by a guy asking why we no longer did awards as they wanted to get the loyal member ones.
Seems like some people do care!
Simple - most of us can’t be arsed. We should probably tell them that the site medal staff work for the UK MoD handing out Telic medals, that would explain everything perfectly!
And a Telic medal is … ?
The bit of bent tin given out approximately 2 years late to UK personnel who have served on Op Telic, the UK’s participation in Iraq. According to the people I know with them, the quality is shocking and they were handed out horrendously late.
It’s just really difficult to keep up with who had been here for how long and deserves what…
