About the NZDSM
The New Zealand Defence Service Medal was instituted in 2011 to recognise attested military service since 3 September 1945 in the New Zealand Armed Forces. The Royal Warrant for the NZDSM allows for one or more clasps to be awarded with the medal. The number of clasps awarded to an individual will be determined by the type(s) of military service undertaken by the individual. There are four clasps which can be awarded with the NZDSM: REGULAR, TERRITORIAL, C.M.T. (image shown on this page) and NATIONAL SERVICE.
The award of the NZDSM does not qualify a recipient for the award of the New Zealand Operational Service Medal.
