I refer to Mary Stiff's letter, Not recognised (Oxford Mail, May 13).
All British servicemen, National Service and Regular, and all locally enlisted troops and police were awarded the General Service Medal with 'Malaya' clasp for service during the years 1951-52.
The medal is silver and named.
All British servicemen who served before 1994 are entitled to the Veterans' Badge, which can be obtained from the Veterans' Agency in Blackpool.
