I got one of these a couple of years ago and I think I posted a scan in the Forum which someone might be able to find. It is a different striking to BC's and I also included a couple of cloth titles.
The NGVR was a remarkable body of men who put up an incredible effort against the Japanese invasion near Rabaul and the north coast (a long way from the Kokoda Trail), for which they received a US Presidential Unit Citation. Their story is very well documented.
