Operational service in Iraq between 10th April and 31st May, 1941, and in Persia between 25th and 28th August, 1941, qualifies in itself for the award of the 1939–45 Star. Other service by United Kingdom or Indian Forces in Persia and Iraq between 3rd September, 1939, and 8th May, 1945, counts towards the qualifying period for the Defence Medal, which in this case is one year.
