With the proviso of it being qualifying cadet service. My reading of this would be to allow you to count ACF time of you were now ATC, or SCC time if now CCF etc
I’m not sure it was that the Gold and Diamond expended things considerably - but I think it’s a reflection that the armed forces reduced from circa 330,000 in 1977 when the Silver Jubilee was issued to circa 150,000 today. AFAIAK there were some Silver Jubilee medals issued to VR(T) officers; I believe they were issued “representative” rather than per person back then, so each formation was given a number to distribute throughout that formation.
Quick Google shows 30,000 issued in the UK, so approx 9000 given to the military
Silver Jubilee had 30,000 issued (plus 30,000 Canadian version).
Golden Jubilee had almost 400,000 (more than 10x increase)
Diamond Jubilee had an estimated 438,000 not including the Caribbean realm versions.

Thanks for that detailed response 
My reading of it was that only Uniformed CFAV were eligible to receive the medal, but nowhere does it say that all the qualifying years had to be whilst in uniform.
Ah I see.
I misread your question then.
No idea. Sorry.
Then does that mean that they are uniformed CFAVs?

Any sign of the DIN on the jubilee medal yet?
Last 2 jubilees it was released in the Nov before.
The pessimist in me is saying they are holding out on issuing it whilst her health stays as it is

All,
A few weeks ago I wrote to the DCMS. To ask and get their confirmation on the QPJM.
I received an official reply.
I can confirm that it is as per the diamond jubillee.
Uniformed CFAVs with 5 years service on the jubilee date will be receiving the medal.

Apologies if this may or may not have been asked - does this include 18-20 service?
No.
It’s only Uniformed CFAV service.
Must have 5 years service as of jubille date.

Of course, they may just be wearing a medal they know they are not entitled to, although knowing the individual, I doubt it.
