Boxed Pingat Jasa Medal with miniature privately named CPO AG Twist LFX910394

Anthony George Twist was born in Liskeard, Cornwall to Henry and Mary.

He married Vera Agnes Green in 1953.

He was awarded the Royal Navy Long Service and Good Conduct medal in March 1967 while serving at HMS Heron.

Royal Naval Air Station Yeovilton, commonly referred to as WAFU central, (HMS Heron) is an airbase of the Royal Navy, sited a few miles north of Yeovil, in the English county of Somerset. It is one of two active Fleet Air Arm bases, the other being RNAS Culdrose.

During the 1960s, further development work was undertaken with the School of Fighter Direction returning to the site, and the Sea Venoms being replaced by the de Havilland Sea Vixens then in turn, by the McDonnell-Douglas Phantom FG1 as a carrier-borne fighter.

Normally issued unnamed, its nice to connect this one to a serviceman. The medals normally come with clasps for wear but the ribbons have been swapped at some time losing the clasps.

Anthony died in 2010.
