I was in Bosnia from 03-04 for about 9 months. Operation Joint Forge. Am I eligible for the GWOT Service Medal and the Overseas Ribbon?

Wasn't on my DD214, but got out and didn't follow up. Now I regret it. Thanks All.

The correct medal for OJF was the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal. Your DD 214 showing that you were there during the inclusive dates (1998-2004) is sufficient to prove you earned it.
The GWOTSM is not authorized as OJF was not an approved GWOT operation nor geared towards anti-terrorism.

From what I was able to find after a quick Google search, the answer is 'no' on the GWOT.

The GWOT was just given out when I joined in 08. Maybe the expeditionary GWOT ?
