70th Anniversary of the Mountbatten Medal

2021 is the 70th Anniversary of the Mountbatten Medal, which has honoured gallant rescues by RLSS award holders since 1951. To mark this occasion, we have produced a booklet on the Mountbatten Medal, which includes the citations for all recipients. We also have recollections from five of the recipients, not only of the rescue but the impact it and the medal has had on them. To view the book click here

Hard copies of this booklet will be available in the New Year at a cost of £12 plus postage. If you would be interested in purchasing a copy, please email commonwealth@rlss.org.uk

We will continue to add to our archive, so if you, or anyone you know has further information on the Mountbatten Medal or any of it’s recipients, please do get in touch
