When I was there in the early 90's for the 6 month tour with 82nd ABD DIV, we did not get an OSR. But I believe the one year tour should.Response by MSG Wally Carmichael made Jul 19 at 2016 7:22 PM2016-07-19T19:22:56-04:002016-07-19T19:22:56-04:00SGM Mikel Dawson1732981<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Did you bother to check out AR 600-8-22?Response by SGM Mikel Dawson made Jul 19 at 2016 8:46 PM2016-07-19T20:46:29-04:002016-07-19T20:46:29-04:00SGT(P) Private RallyPoint Member1733791<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am having an issue with qualifying for one in kuwait. <br /><br />Regulation states that you awarded one for successful completion of an overseas tour according to 614-30.<br /><br />And in that regulation it states that to get a completed tour, you have to be in your country for a certain amount of days/months.Response by SGT(P) Private RallyPoint Member made Jul 20 at 2016 4:12 AM2016-07-20T04:12:38-04:002016-07-20T04:12:38-04:00CW5 Private RallyPoint Member1734294<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My S1 told me the criteria was at least 10 months for the one year tour in Korea and I was told one of my tours (7 months) in Iraq did not qualify.<br />The reg states 'overseas tour completion' and I guess the nature of the tour would dictate the duration.Response by CW5 Private RallyPoint Member made Jul 20 at 2016 9:33 AM2016-07-20T09:33:04-04:002016-07-20T09:33:04-04:00CPT Daniel Glorsky1734386<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yes you do, just no stripes on the lower sleevesResponse by CPT Daniel Glorsky made Jul 20 at 2016 10:03 AM2016-07-20T10:03:23-04:002016-07-20T10:03:23-04:00SGT Morrison (Mike) Hogwood1734484<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Were you a US INF BATT that did a six month rotation or were you 1st Spt Bn COSCOM ,back in 1990/91 only the 1st SDpt Bn got them as we did one year deployment,the only ribbon the US Inf Batt got was a MFO ribbonResponse by SGT Morrison (Mike) Hogwood made Jul 20 at 2016 10:28 AM2016-07-20T10:28:38-04:002016-07-20T10:28:38-04:00MAJ Private RallyPoint Member1734505<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yes you do.

However, when I did mine I had a buddy who was on his second MFO deployment, which supposedly qualified him for an OSR. If it is longer now, then perhaps.Response by SFC J Fullerton made Jul 20 at 2016 12:08 PM2016-07-20T12:08:11-04:002016-07-20T12:08:11-04:00SFC Walt Dellinger1735068<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>3: IAW AR 614-30, Soldiers who serve a minimum of 11 cumulative months (within a 24 month period) or 9 continuous months in a TCS/TDY status may receive overseas tour credit for a completed short tour.Response by SFC Walt Dellinger made Jul 20 at 2016 1:39 PM2016-07-20T13:39:59-04:002016-07-20T13:39:59-04:00MSG Scott Milne1735112<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>No. you get a service star for every 6 months, that is you are assigned to the 1st Support Battalion.Response by MSG Scott Milne made Jul 20 at 2016 1:58 PM2016-07-20T13:58:27-04:002016-07-20T13:58:27-04:00SSG Dave Johnston7377429<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Ah, yes...Response by SSG Dave Johnston made Nov 19 at 2021 1:02 AM2021-11-19T01:02:16-05:002021-11-19T01:02:16-05:002016-07-19T19:19:37-04:00
