Royal Navy Long Service &
Good Conduct

Date: 24th August 1831
Reciptent: A.C.Shipman Chief
Stoker HMS Revenge
Services: Royal Navy
Medal Composite: Silver
Clasps: None
Number Issued: Unknown


Notes : Issued for 15 year service of good conduct. in 1981 commisioned officers whom had spent 12 years in ranks became eligble for this award. On the reverse of the medal we see a man-of-war surround by rope, tied in a reef knot at the base. I personally have always thought that this is 'HMS Victory', Admiral Nelson's flagship at Trafalgar, as she is still the flagship of the British fleet. This medal was issued between 1931 and 1936, as per the monarch's bust on the obverse.
