The Naval General Service Medal (1915 NGSM) was instituted in 1915 to recognise service by the Royal Navy and Royal Marines in minor campaigns that would otherwise not earn a specific campaign medal. The Army/Air Force equivalent was the General Service Medal (1918). Both these medals were replaced by the General Service Medal in 1962. == Clasps == * PERSIAN GULF 1909–14 – for operations against pirates, gun-runners and slavers. * IRAQ 1919–20 – for river gunboat service during the Arab Rebellion. * N.W.
