The General Service Medal 1962 (GSM 1962) was introduced by Ministry of Defence Order No. 61 dated 6 October 1964. It was decided that the three services (Royal Navy, Army and Royal Air Force) would have the one identical general service medal, with the appropriate clasp issued to the recipient.

If the recipient had already been awarded the medal, then the additional clasp would be added to those already on the medal. Like its predecessors, the NGS and GSM 1918-62, the GSM 1962 was not issued without a clasp. The clasps were worn on the GSM 1962 in the order that they were earned (reading from the bottom of the ribbon upwards), which is not necessarily the chronological order of the clasps institution.

The GSM 1962's ribbon is purple with green edges. These are the same colours as the GSM 1918-62, but with different proportions of these two colours being used for this medal.



If you have more than 1 court mounted medal in your basket, they will be court mounted together as a set
