  • More about The Naval Meritorious Service Medal

The Naval Meritorious Service Medal was introduced in 1918 to recognize acts of gallantry not under enemy fire and provide long and meritorious service awards to Naval personnel. This medal has been largely unresearched, but this account provides an analysis of the campaigns for which the awards were made and details the Army and Royal Air Force Meritorious Service Medal awards made to Naval personnel. It is a definitive history of these awards and a companion to the author's previous work on the Distinguished Service Medal.

The Naval Meritorious Service Medal is a significant historical account of the evolution of a medal that replaced the Distinguished Service Medal in 1918 as a recognition for acts of gallantry not involving enemy fire. It also serves as a fitting tribute to the numerous individuals who rendered long and meritorious service. Despite its historical significance, this medal has been relatively under-researched until now. This account brings together the surviving recommendations for these awards, offering an insightful analysis of the campaigns for which they were conferred and providing a detailed overview of the Army and Royal Air Force Meritorious Service Medal awards bestowed upon Naval personnel. The work serves as a definitive history of these awards and complements the author's previous work on the Distinguished Service Medal, providing a comprehensive understanding of the military's recognition system.
