You're lucky, in Canada the grunts have shoved court mounting down our throats and now it's mandatory. That being said, the Queen picks up the tab. We also had to move them down over our breast pockets like the Yanks. Jesus wept.Deckhead_Inspector said:Court mounting is now legal in the RN. All the CT staff have had theirs done to save on wear and tear. The "Some one senior" who picked you up is wrong. Refer them to BR 81.
Once upon a time the only RN people alowed to have theirs court mounted were Officers serving in Court, ADCs etc, and people with a lot of medals who could have them court mounted and overlapping. This all changed about 5 years ago. Naval traditionalists will always prefer to have medals mounted "Loose" but they are no longer backed up by regulations.
