EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to April 1993 in Fowey, Cornwall. The image captures a significant moment for the members of the Fowey Branch of the Royal Naval Auxiliary Service as they proudly display their 12 years service medals. Standing shoulder to shoulder, five distinguished individuals are depicted with utmost dignity and pride. From left to right, we see Auxiliary Officer Richard Curtis, Chief Naval Auxiliaryman Barry Ward, and Leading Naval Auxiliarymen Geoff Coad, Geoff Ward, and Tony Thompson. The presence of Captain John Nevelle-Rolfe adds an air of authority to the scene as he stands tall in his naval uniform adorned with brass buttons and naval stripes. It is he who had the honor of presenting these well-deserved medals to these dedicated servicemen. This photograph perfectly encapsulates camaraderie and loyalty within the Royal Naval Auxiliary Service. Their commitment to serving their country shines through their expressions as they stand united against a picturesque Cornish backdrop. Taken by photographer Jonathan Barker, this image serves as a testament not only to these remarkable individuals but also to all those who have served in our armed forces. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by both military personnel and civilians alike in order to protect our nation's freedom. Displayed at the Royal Cornwall Museum, this print serves as a poignant reminder of duty and dedication that should never be forgotten or taken for granted.
