History / Summary
The Australian Service Medal (1945 - 1975) was established in 1995 to recognise service by Australian forces in peacekeeping and/or non-warlike operations not already being recognised by the award of an individual campaign medal. Operations considered for inclusion must have taken place between 3 September 1945 and 16 September 1975. The ASM cannot be issued without a clasp. The clasp 'FESR' was authorised for crews of ships of the Royal Australian Navy serving in the Far East Strategic Reserve between 2 July 1955 and 30 October 1971.
