You receive thw NATO Service Medal when you serve on an operation as part of a NATO force. If you were in Afghanistan as part of ISAF, you would get the medal. If you were in Afghanistan, but your unit was not part of ISAF, you would not. If you did non-combat tours in Bosnia as part of IFOR or SFOR, Kosovo as part of KFOR, East Timor as part of INTERFET, etc. you would get the medal. If you were subordinate to a command other than NATO, you would not.
