Australian General Service Medal for Korea - Miniature Unmounted

The Australian General Service Medal for Korea is a service medal awarded to Australian military personnel who served in Korea during the Korean War between 27 June 1950 and 27 July 1953. Established in 1953, the Australian General Service Medal for Korea recognizes the contribution and sacrifices of Australian soldiers who served during the Korean War, which was fought in support of the United Nations Command to defend South Korea against the invading North Korean army.

Design

The circular medal is finished in antique silver, and features a design of polar projection lines overlayed with a map of South Korea. This design is surrounded by the words "AUSTRALIAN GENERAL SERVICE MEDAL KOREA". The reverse of the medal displays the words "POST ARMISTICE SERVICE 1953-1956", surrounded by a wreath of gum leaves. The suspender bar features the Federation Star.

Ribbon

The accompanying ribbon has a central line of yellow, flanked by stripes of light blue, and bordered by white. These colours reflect those used in the Korea Medal and United Nations Korea Medal.
