History

This Medal is associated with the Norwegian Society for Sea Rescue, and was likely conferred to recognize very commendable rescuers.

It is uncertain when the Medal was instituted, and uncertain if the Medal continues to be conferred or if it was discontinued.

It is likely that this Medal is associated with the Medal for Rescue at Sea (See Medals & Decorations NOR114 for more information).

The reverse of this Medal is engraved reading "H.R. 25.10.69."
