Rhodesia Medal 1980

The Rhodesia Medal was awarded for 14 days service between 1st December 1979 and 20th March 1980.

This Medal was awarded to members of the armed services, police personnel and civilians who served in the multi-national force on Operation Agila. The peacekeeping force monitored the transitional stages of Rhodesia's independence in the run-up to the 1980 elections.

As this is a peacekeeping rather than campaign medal, it has a specific order of wear and should be at the end of a group after all awards but before authorised foreign awards.
