oamotme Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Jasmor58 The current Dubai Police Series is, I think, the 3rd series in the development of the Dubai Police awards and consist of, subject to confirmation: Order of Dubai Police - 5 Grades Order of Bravery - 4 Grades Order of Appreciation - 2 Grades Order of Cooperative Security - 2 Grades Medal of Distinguished Service - 10, 20, 30 & 40 years - two grades for each Medal of Loyal Service - 10, 20, 30 & 40 years - two grades for each To date I have been unable to ascertain why/what the grade subdivision represents for the last two awards.

oamotme Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Jasmor58, The First Series, dating from the 1970's, consisted of only three single class awards: Order of Bravery Order of Merit Order of Loyal Service. This was later expanded into a Second Series: Order of Bravery - 3 Classes Order of Excellence - 3 Classes Order / Medal of Meritorious Long Service - for 10, 20 & 30 Years Medal of Long Service - for 10, 20 & 30 Years Kind regards, Owain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasmor58 Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Owain, Seems to be really quite complicated! Jasmor58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oamotme Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Ha! The UAE as a whole has in its relatively brief existence a vast selection of awards: As a nation it has State, Military and Ministry of Interior awards - various and expanding series of such awards. Some of the constituent Emirates have their own series of awards: Dubai - Police Sharjah - Police Ras Al Khaima - State Um Ul Qwain - State ...and prior to the and over the formation of the Emirates there were specific awards for the Trucial Oman Scouts, Abu Dhabi Defence Force, Abu Dhabi Police, Dubai Defence Force and Union Defence Force. If you need more detail OMSA has published some of articles of mine on these awards. Kind regards, Owain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
