Hello, I’m new to the forum and I’m hoping somebody can help. I have searched the forum before posting this, but I can’t see to find the answers.
My friend recently passed away and I would like to find out more about his discharge from the Royal Navy in the 1950’s. He was discharged for homosexuality and I understand he had a ‘choice’ of a custodial sentence, or treatment, and I believe he chose the latter to avoid bringing shame on his mother.
The attached ‘Remarks’ section of his records detail the SNLR, but I can’t find out what any of the other terms and abbreviations are. I would be very grateful if somebody can advise!
