Gday crab. Sorry It took so long. The email I received was from Miss C Lawrence. Email for mod is as follows. [email]dbs-modmohonoursandawards@mod.uk[/email] She stated to me that we were awarded both the Saudi and Kuwait medals medals however they do not have any more so you have to apply to the relevant embassies like I did. A lot of aussies and brits have them now including me. Google bae gulf medals and there is a lot of info including a brit got his from MOd. You are entitled to them. Best of luck. Aussie

Hi All,
I have just joined this forum and was interested to find this thread. I was a BAE employee during Gulf War 1, and have my medal with the Jan/Feb 91 clasp. A number of years ago I inquired about the related Saudi and Kuwaiti medals with the old MOD Medal office, and with the MOD. They both said no for BAE, though that appeared to contradict the related DCI.
Aussie, can you share with me the contact email address at MOD please or any contact details for the Foreign Office if you have them. While I can easily get the postal address for both, having the right contact or an existing reference may help things move a bit quicker.
Thanks for your assistance.
