This medal should be awarded to current and PAST serving service members
The medal is currently planned to be awarded to all serving members of the armed and civil services who have complete 5 years service. Given that most retired members have provided service to Her Majesty in the last 60 years in a variety of locations and conflicts it seems illogical that we are being ignored. A PCSO having done 5 years on the beat qualifies whilst a long service member of the armed forces who might have seen service in the Falklands, Bosnia and Iraq will be ignored. Retired and serving members (who had not served 5 years) did not receive either the silver or golden anniversary medals. Surely on this unique occasion an exception could be made.

Joined RN in 1963 and did 25 years man and boy. All service people should receive ALL of the Queens medals if they were serving. Not just a select few. Cost again?? We never considered the cost when we signed up.
Canada, Australia reward there service personnel for their service. Just because 11/11 has gone we must never forget are British Veterans service our are serving troops.

Jim M this they should be issued if you were serving at the time and those issued after your retirement should also be given as a mark of the service that you have given.
