    Basically you need to be next of kin, or have written consent of next of kin.

    These pages tell you how to apply and what you will get for your money. I believe it will cost you £30 for each service record.

    Be aware that...

    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.
