Are we talking about the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal? If we are, you will find information about it here

Otherwise, Eligibility for The Queen's Diamond Jubilee Medal

The following people will be eligible for The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal:

• members of the Armed Forces (regular and reserves) who have completed five full calendar years of service on 6 February 2012
• emergency services personnel who have been in paid service, retained or in a voluntary capacity, who have to face the prospect of dealing with emergencies as part of their conditions of service, and have completed five full calendar years of service on 6 February 2012
• operational prison services personnel who regularly face difficult and sometimes emergency situations and have completed five full calendar years of service on 6 February 2012
• all Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) who are in service on 6 February 2012 and have completed five full calendar years of service
• living holders of the Victoria Cross and George Cross
• members of the Royal Household

Secretary of State for Culture, Olympics, Media and Sport, Jeremy Hunt, said: "The Queen has dedicated her life to the service of this country and the Diamond Jubilee will offer us all the opportunity to celebrate the commitment, loyalty and faithfulness with which she has led the country across the last sixty years. It is right that we reward those people who, like The Queen, also dedicate their lives to public good and who represent the very best of the British spirit.

"I hope the official medal will serve as a mark of thanks to all those who give so much in the name of society and public service and I extend my congratulations to all the recipients."
The medals will be awarded during the first half of 2012.

Thanks Bob
i am surprised that members of the armed forces who served during the Queens diamond jubilee have not been recognized,as they were serving Queen and country,i suppose there will be a lot of people asking the same question?

Thanks Bob

Dai,

The Queens Jubilee Medal is awarded to personnel of the Regular, Reserve and Cadet forces who were in effective service on 6 February 2002, who had completed 5 full calendar years reckonable service and were properly enlisted on or before 7 February 1997.
The medal was issued un-named.
Full details are laid out in DCI JS 6/02.
