Hi Yorkstone,

         Thank you for clarifying that the design of the HMPS long service medal was generic and not totally based on Dartmoor Prison.

I am also aware of the effort you and others put in to establish the award of the medal to prison staff, thank you.

very nice imperial service medal and jubilee plus the 25 year Service pin badge.

 I have all my own epaulets put aside also.

image added below are my fathers medals Alan he retired as a Principal Officer from Swinfen Hall.

The Pingat Jasa Malaysia was added 2007 50 years late after leaveing Malaya.

lets hope he will be able to add a National Defense medal soon.

I have the medals and some papers of a RN Petty Officer who served in Malaya in 1954/55.  In his Federation of Malaya and Colony of Singapore Driver's Licences his address is given as the Military Corrective Establishment at Kinrara.  I wondered whether he would have been eligible for the Pingat Jasa Malaysia award?

Bret,

your man was in Malaya to early I believe it was 57 onwards when the service personnel were entitled to the Pingat Jasa Malaysia.
