"British service personnel, civilians and media workers who took part in
the Iraq war are to receive a campaign medal, the Ministry of Defence
says. The medal is for those who served in and in support of operations
in Iraq from 20 January, 2003...

Journalists "embedded" in UK military units, including correspondents,
cameramen, photographers and sound engineers, and some foreign nationals
would be eligible...

It will have the same status as other campaign medals" more above
