Medals of the Irish Defence Forces

Posthumous awards:
The qualifying service is not required for members killed or presumed killed
while on ISAF assignment. In such cases, the medal may be awarded
posthumously.

note:
Irish personnel who served in ISAF from July 2002 to July 2003 (ISAF
contingents 1, 2 & 3) were not awarded a medal because during that time
the mission was led by designated nations/headquarters who did not strike
a medal for the mission. The NATO ISAF medal did not come into effect until
after July 2003.
