View source for Royal Humane Society

The '''Royal Humane Society''', founded in 1774, bestowed Silver and Bronze medals and also sometimes certificates on vellum to people who saved, or attempted to save life at sea.  This was not a military or naval award, per se, but one bestowable upon any worthy individual.  This article will focus on naval-related awards, particularly during the Dreadnought Era.

A list of Royal Navy and Royal Marine war-time recipients of these awards appears in the ''Navy List'' of October, 1918.{{NLOct18|p. 2412}}  Another list encompassing all naval and marine awards given to date is found in the ''Navy List'' of October 1878.{{NLOct78|pp. 575-580}}  To reduce our scope to a manageable scalem I have included only those names for men who are not on a customary officer track.

The awards sometimes were simply vellums or parchment certificates, sometimes included along with a medal of Gold, Silver or Bronze.  A clasp to be affixed to a medal was often used to indicate a second award received of the same type.

==Stanhope Gold Medal Recipients==

The Gold, or '''Stanhope Medal''' was created in the name of Silver Medal awardee [[Chandos Scudamore Scudamore Stanhope]] to honour the person whose lifesaving deed was deemed bravest of the year.  There had been a gold medal of some other kind prior to the Stanhope's creation.{{ToL|The Stanhope Gold Medal|Wednesday, Feb 12, 1936; pg. 11; Issue 47296}}

==Silver Medal Awardees==

There appears to be a bias to award officers a Silver medal (rather than a Bronze medal) for men such as stokers, A.Bs. or cooks.
