    Honestly didn't realise that the LS&GC were recorded in the London Gazette. Sadly shows a lowering of standards within the Naval Division....Not one awarded to an Able Rate.

    You don't see any 18-25 year-old junior rates in receipt of Continuity of Education Allowance (CEA) to send their teenage children to boarding school, either. Do I smell a class/rank-based conspiracy by the grown-ups? :shock:

    Anyway, I will use this thread to post more links to awards in the London Gazette as they appear. Still no sign of the latest MSMs although previous recipients have been gazetted:

    I was also unaware that pea doos were Gazetted. Thought it was only MiDs and on up.

    It's quite a recent thing, maybe ten years since.

    Says on that list that the Chief Stoker had forfeited the MSM, wonder what he got caught out doing.

    The probably clocked that he was a Submariner and took it off him - not enough room on his chest, with the SM clasps and other gongs on there as well... :wink:

    I would observe that 18-25 year old JRs are perfectly entitled to claim CEA if they meet the criteria in JSP 752.

    The only class distinction I can see is that only Ratings or former Ratings get awarded medals for their long service, or get awarded valedictory certificates on leaving with more than 20 years service.

    True enough but I suspect you may have taken my post too literally. :)

    Always a risk with written posts. Sorry if I took it the wrong way. It was my 25th Anniversary of joining though so hopefully you'll cut a bitter and twisted poster some slack! :icon_smile:

    Completion of a further 15 years service subsequent to the award of the LS & GC medal provided that the conduct/discipline criteria have been met.
