In that same OPNAVNOTE, on page 1, para 2b states: Since JOUETT qualified for the Southwest Asia Service Medal during the qualifying time period,(Aug 1990 - Aug-1991), and is not listed as an exception, then, the way I read this indicates that JOUETT also qualifies for the KLM(K). Have not found anything in reference to the Battle E after 1990. George
SA = Southwest Asia
NU = Navy Unit
b. Enclosures (2) through (8) do not contain information of the Kuwait Liberation Medals (KLM)
and (KLM(K)). Except for the ships listed below, if a ship or unit is listed for the Southwest Asia
Service Medal for the period 2 August 1990 to 31 August 1991 or 17 January to 28 February 1991, they
also qualify for the KLM(K) or the KLM, respectively:
USS VIRGINIA (CGN 38)
USS PITTSBURGH (SSN 720)
USS PHILADELPHIA (SSN 690)
USS NEWPORT NEWS (SSN 750)
EOD MOBILE UNIT 6, DET 6
USS MINNEAPOLIS/ST. PAUL (SSN 708)
