The Royal Navy
Prior to 1972 all RN personnel were given their service record when they discharged. For pension purposes the RN retained pay details. Therefore the only information held on RN personnel who served prior to 1972 are their Service details (number, rank, name etc) and a list of dates and ships/shore bases.
A Subject Access Requests (SAR) form needs to be completed in order to access records.
The following address should be used for all Royal Navy and Royal Marine Enquiries
