The Distinguished Service Medal was the main gallantry medal given
to naval ratings during the First World War, with over 4,000 medals
being awarded. The citations for these awards are difficult to
identify in surviving documents, which has meant that the reason
why many of the awards were made has remained somewhat enigmatic.
For the first time this book documents all the surviving
recommendations for these awards as well as providing analysis of
the campaigns for which the awards were made. The posthumous
recommendations for the medal and also details of the other awards
made to DSM recipients are included to provide a definitive history
of the medal during the First World War and the Interwar period.
