General Service 1962-2007, 1 clasp, Gulf (APOWEM (R) J A Clark D171341S RN), good very fine

Awarded for service during the 'Armilla Patrol', November 1986-February 1989. During this period, the protracted war between Saddam Hussein's Iraq and Iran quickly stalled on land, but the ability to strike oil-carrying vessels of the enemy became rife. During 1986 alone, 111 neutral tankers were sunk in the gulf. In order to protect the trade, a combined force swept the seas, this clasp being instituted in late 1989.
