The issue

The Australian Government through the Department of Defence issues the Australian Service Medal, clasp S Pacific 2006  to those ADF members who attended the Fijian coup in 2006.

The ADF personnel who attended the first coup in Fiji in 1987 (Operation Morris Dance) were not issues the Australian Service or any other Medal at all.

It is unfair to those ADF members who attended the 1987 coup not to be issues the Australian Service Medal when those who went to the coup in 2006 did. 

Please sign this petition demanding the Australian Government issues those ADF members to be issued the Australian Service Medal for the Fijian coup in 1987.

Thank you
