The Decoration shall not confer any individual precedence but will entitle the officer to the addition after his name of the post-nominal letters KSV. It replaced the Efficiency Decoration in 1972 that was awarded to volunteer officers of the Ceylon Army therefore it is somewhat similar to the British Volunteer Reserves Service Medal.
