All decorations and medals for achievement and service also are examined, ranging from the Navy and Coast Guard Distinguished Service Medals, Legion of Merit, and Meritorious Service Medal to the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation and Achievement Medals and the Combat Action Ribbon. Fifty full color photographs of sea service awards, many of which have never been published, provide context for this unique history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This medal, sanctioned in 1847 and issued in 1848, was awarded for services during the Napoleonic Wars 1801-14.It had been planned to award the medal for battles and campaigns as far back as 1793, but such was the time lapse that very few claimants would have come forward, and therefore the first clasp awarded was that for Egypt , for the campaign of 1801.Some 25,000 medals were issued with an almost infinite variety of the 29 clasps issued, the maximum on one medal being fifteen.The great variety of clasps and regiments found on this medal make it one of the most interesting of all campaign awards.The time lapse between the actual battles and the issue of the medal meant that only a small number of survivors from each regiment lived to receive the award.In addition, there were survivors who did not know about or could not claim the medal. Most of the clasps were awarded for service during the Peninsular War of 1811-14, although six clasps were issued for the Peninsula War of 1808-09.In addition, there were three clasps for services in Canada, two for services in the West Indies, and one each for Egypt (1801), Maida (Southern Italy 1806), and Java (1811).The obverse is the usual Wyon head of Victoria, with the date 1848 at the foot, whilst the reverse depicts Victoria placing a laurel wreath on Wellington as he kneels before her; there is also an inscription, and the British Lion is represented.The clasps were struck in groups of three where applicable, and then riveted together.The suspension is by a straight, swivelling suspension.The naming is always in impressed Roman capitals.There are too many rarities to detail both in terms of the clasps and the regiments, but it should be borne in mind that only about 10% of those who fought in these battles and campaigns lived to receive the medal, and that, when the number that have been lost, destroyed or placed in museums is taken into acount, this medal can be described as scarce and a considerable number of issues as rare.
