I was told by my CO, then, that for the Good Service Medal,
there is an additional criteria of getting at least a B- in your
last 2 appraisals, before he will sign on your recommendation to
receive the medal . Whether this is discretionary at the CO's
level, I'm not sure. But there were quite a number of my colleagues
who did not get even after serving 3 or 4 hi-key ICTs.
