Please note that the image used is not one of our replicas and is for reference only. Our replicas are the best we have been able to source but at time of listing this item we have not taken individual photos of all the replica medals we can provide.
The Australian Defence Medal recognises Australian Defence Force personnel who have efficiently completed either:
- an initial enlistment period, or
- four years service,
whichever is the lesser, and all of the relevant service was after 3 September 1945.
Included are former Defence Force members who did not complete the qualifying period because they:
- died in service,
- were medically discharged and the impairment was compensable at the time of discharge, or
- left the service due to a Defence workplace policy of the time. (For example, in the past a woman was required to resign on marriage.)
World War II veterans are not eligible for the Australian Defence Medal unless they were demobilised, re-enlisted after 3 September 1945 and then met the above criteria. The Australia Service Medal 1939-45 is the Australian award for the recognition of World War II service.
This is a very common medal and over 1 million are eligible for it. Most who served after WWII should have it.
The cost to mount the medal is $16.50. So for example this medal mounted would be $36.50.
