Territorial Efficiency Medal

The Territorial Efficiency Medal is a medal of the United Kingdom awarded for long service in the Territorial Army. This award superseded the Territorial Force Efficiency Medal when the Territorial Force became the Territorial Army in 1921.

The criteria were for a minimum of 12 years service in the Territorial Army with war service counting double. Bars for further periods of 12 years were not awarded because they were not possible, given that this medal was superseded after 9 years by the Efficiency Medal.The medal is referred to as the TEM.

The Regimental Collect

Almighty God,

Creator and Preserver of all mankind, we beseech Thee in Thy wisdom to guide and guard us Thy servants of The Royal Green Jackets. Make us worthy of the great traditions bound up in the union of our three Regiments, and as Thy servants of old were chosen to obey with speed, may we be bold to seek Thy Grace in every time of need, and so be patient and persevering in running the race that is set before us. This we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.
