A VOLUNTEER has been recognised for his long service.

Sub Lieutenant (SCC) Christopher Harvey-Jones RNR of the Milford Haven Sea Cadets has been recognised this week, in a low-key presentation of his Cadet Forces Medal.

Uniformed Adult Volunteers, within the Cadet Forces Medal, are recognised for their service with a medal after 12 years and then every 6 years a clasp may be awarded.

In this case, Chris has served both as an Air Cadet Officer and as a Sea Cadet Officer to meet this requirement.

The presentation was conducted by the District Officer, Lieutenant Commander (SCC) Sue Gittins RNR in front of a small group of cadets and adults.

Lieutenant (SCC) William Elliott RNR, the Commanding Officer said: “We are always very proud to celebrate any adult achievement, but this particular achievement echoes the commitment that many give. Sub Lieutenant Harvey-Jones has brought a lot to the Sea Cadets and specifically Milford Haven Unit. From all the Unit, very many congratulations on your Cadet Forces Medal.”
