Are you the only one getting the medal or are others with five or more years in also getting one? I don't suppose HMP will be having new cap badges made, in view of the fact that they are no longer issued. Or are they?

Congratulations Stephen l would hope that all staff with over 5 years service will receive the medal.

Gentlemen Medals awarded to all operational staff with 5 or more years service on the date of the coronation as per all other services see attached documents.

Re modernising insignia epaulets and othe cloth insignia will be first to be updated I expect.

Re metal Cap badges Shoulder titles buttons on tunics will be required for staff who carry out ceremonial duties.

I marched on the Queens funeral 1 of 16 staff selected to represent HMPPS and 22 lined the rout of the coronation we were part of the Civilian contingents for these events and Armistice.

So yes HMPPS will require metal insignia when I do not know hope that answers your questions.

On the previous three occasions uniformed Instructors in the cadet forces also received the medal so waiting to hear if we get it this time. We normally get lumped in with the armed forces and not initially mentioned as now.

Yes we will be getting it. I only received my Platinum Jubilee Medal two weeks ago (despite having easily fulfilled all the criteria), bizarrely, five days later I received my Cadet Forces Medal (I had not received a medal since the Diamond Jubilee in 2012 and then I received two medals in a five day period !). Usual criteria applies (i.e. five years service), my source works in Cadets Branch and HQ RC.

Very long delay their chaps I received my PJM March last year and Paul congratulations on your LS&GC.

I was Sgt Cadet adult instructor for 7 years glad I did not have to rely on ACF to sort out my medals
