Australian Service Medal (ASM) - With Clasp Special Ops

The Australian Service Medal (ASM) with Clasp SPECIAL OPS was awarded to naval personnel who had been aboard submarines, on trips as specified by CDF.

It has come to our attention that there are still a number of ex-submariners from the RAN who haven't applied for their ASM with Clasp SPECIAL OPS. As a consequence, their Medals remain undelivered. This to me is a great shame and we should do all we can to locate as many of these guys as possible. If your name appears on the attached list, please send a short letter stating your name, service no. and current postal address to that shown on the enclosure. Could you all have a good long look at the list, and if you know of the whereabouts of any of them, please contact that person and give them the Medals Section address.  The Australian Service Medal (ASM) with Clasp SPECIAL OPS was awarded to naval personnel who had been aboard submarines, on trips as specified by CDF. 

The following may not have collected their ASM (Special Ops). This list is out of date so if you are on the list and HAVE collected your medal, please let me know.
