Naval Record Nomenclature Help Please

Recommended Posts

Hi all

I have accessed the Naval Record of a relative who served in the RN from the 1860s onwards.

There is a column headed 'GC Badges Worn'. It has intials GI, DI, RI, occurring several times, with dates against each, which are presumably the dates that each Good Conduct Badge was awarded. Can anyone advise please what the initials stand for.

Many thanks

BTW you will need to cross reference the ships he was on with lists of those qualifying for medals or non medal actions as this is rarely on the service records.
