Sorry the truth hurts. Don't care you're a tier 3 veteran. To rehash the tiers...
Tier 1-Combat vet in direct action against enemy forces (not to include idf attacks)
Tier 2-"Combat vet" serving in places like Kandahar and Bagram who never left the FOB and/or never discharged their weapon in direct combat.
Tier 3-Active Duty never deployed.
Tier 4-National Guard / Reservists who don't meet Tier 1 or 2 requirements.
We did some training with the Australians when we got detached to PACOM during the last couple of years in my time.
Their combat pay system is actually something very similar to this. I wish we'd use it.
Of course, then you'd have every frickwad Air Force light colonel doing a 3 month stint at Bagram going on one logistics patrol to get that tier.

The men and women of the armed forces volunteer to possibly die for me so I can go to lsu games, hunt, fish, make a living, express my views, make love to my woman, cook on a Saturday night with my wife and kids while drinking double fricking jack n coke and do whatever the frick I want as long as it's legal in the eyes of our legal system in peace and without having to fear for my life and my family's life from foreign enemies (who trust me, would love to see how country get obliterated off this planet). So to answer your question.
You OP can go frick yourself and go live in the world of unicorns and rainbows.
