New Zealand General Service Medal 1992 (Non-Warlike)

The New Zealand General Service Medal 1992 was instituted to recognise service in non-warlike operations for which no separate New Zealand, British Commonwealth, United Nations or NATO campaign medal was issued. Thirteen clasps have been issued for non-warlike (peacekeeping) operations since 1954. In 2002 it was replaced by the New Zealand General Service Medal, 2002. The design and colours of the ribbon are based upon the New Zealand Medal 1845-47 and 1860-66.
