Marines of 22d MAU who made a brief stop in Grenada last October en route to Lebanon earned an extra expeditionary medal for their effort. Last January the Defense Department approved the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal for those taking part in URGENT FURY, code name for operations in and around Grenada. MAU Marines who serve in Lebanon have been authorized to wear the Marine Expeditionary Medal since August 1982 (seeMCG, Nov83). Also earning the latter medal are Marines who served aboard USS New Jersey from 25 September through 3 November 1983.
