Royal Army Meritorious Service Medal

The Royal Army Meritorious Service Medal was a Royal Army service decoration in the Golden Empire. It was awarded for meritorious service which did not merit the Royal Army Distinguished Service Medal. The Navy and Starfighter Corps issued equivalent medals; all three were considered mid-level decorations.

The Meritorious Service Medal featured the crossed rifle designed of the Distinguished Service Medal, but with the rifles crossed the opposite way and resting on a green wreath. The medal hung from an orange and black ribbon.
