    Background:
    The Medal was established by the Board of Trade.  It required at least one voyage through dangerous waters, or 6 months at sea during the War.  Coastal trades like pilots and lighthouse keepers qualified, as well.  Merchant sailors seconded to Warships could qualify for this Medal as well as those that transferred out of Mercantile Service for say the Army could still qualify for this Medal.
