An unusual grouping of Prison medals is the Prison Service Medal or Prison General Service medal together with a Rhodesian General Service Medal. This indicates someone who served with another arm of the Forces (Police, Army, etc) before or after their time with the Prison Service.

Medals issued to Female Members have (F) after the name.
