First and foremost, duty anywhere is not a guarantee for any awards or citations, but the length of service and type of tour matter. We have became really accustomed to the everyone gets a trophy for doing our duty and the KSM is just one example. The Army awards more than any other service, so you will salad up the ASU some when you return. Thanks for your service PFC Augustine.

GWOTE for sure, maybe Armed Forces Expeditionary, but I think you can only get one or the other. Somebody with more current service will have to chime in.

The AFEM has a component that specifies an armed enemy force. Depending on what you are doing there this may not be met. He also did not specify if he was there for a named operation, which would clear this up. I know we have some ADA guysnthere defending against Houthi missiles from Yemen.
