History


The Civilian Service Medal (Afghanistan) was instituted by Queen Elizabeth II on April 6, 2011. The Medal was created to reward civilians involved in Afghanistan's transition to democracy who were not eligible for the Operation Service Medal (Afghanistan) or the Accumulated Campaign Service Medal, and who have also provided 30 days of continuous service or 45 days of aggregated service of 48 hours each over a period of 1 year since November 19, 2001. Service curtailed by death, illness or disability inflicted while on active duty, or service recognized by another British award, also qualified for the award of the Medal. British, Commonwealth, and foreign personnel who served as crown servants under operational control of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, or as police and contractors are eligible for the award. Locally employed civilians are not eligible for the award.

The Medal features a reverse inscription in both English and Afghan of the name of the country.
