It doesn’t get rarer than this… Completely original Type 1 1939 U. Marine Corps Fleet Reserve miniature medal. These type 1 medals were only awarded (I believe there was a single BB&B contract) for a handful of months in early 1939. It was replaced by the type II medal for the second half of 1939 and a short time in 1940 before a complete activation of the Fleet Marine Corps Reserve occurred at the earliest onset of WWII. Thus, there was no need for either medal during the war, so both early types rarely surface for sale. Full size type I medals only come up for sale every few years, and I’ve only seen two miniatures in 30 years in the hobby. This is truly a time capsule piece.

Badge, British War and Victory Medals, both impressed named, LIEUT. R. N. V. R. Defence and War Medals 1939-45, un named as issued; Royal Air Force Long Service & Good Conduct medal G. Court mounted for display. Assistant Air Attache at the British Embassy at Stockholm. During WW2 in Stockholm, all diplomats, attachés and other staff reported intelligence, took part in the collection of intelligence or performing special operations. It has been suggested that the award was made in the Civil Division in order to disguise the likelihood of the award being made for assisting the escape of Prisoners of War from Sweden or other activities. Wing Commander Donald Hayton Fleet. Was a British Subject born on 18/3/1895, in St Petersburg. He enlisted into the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve 30/12/1915, as an Able Seaman. At the time he was living in Bournemouth with his employment described as independent. His father Bertie Hayton Fleet of Orsk Goldfields Ltd, Nicolaiersk on Amur, Siberia was his next of kin. He was initially attached to the 4. 8/1/1916, but by February 1916 he was entered in Signal School Depot. 8/5/16 Drafted to Chatham Signal School. 31/1/1917 granted a temporary commission 2. Lieutenant and assigned to H. Intrepid as an interpreter. 4/4/19 for duty with Naval Stores Office, White Sea. Depot at Beresnik during July August, where he did particular useful work in connection with the transport of stores etc to the ships at –? Also materially assisting in the evacuation of Naval Stores from Archangel during September. This officer is willing and energetic 3/1/1920. Temporary commission terminated medically unfit 7/2/20. At some stage he joined the Royal Air Force as an enlisted man and was awarded his L. Medal as a Flight Sergeant. Granted a temporary commission 16/2/1940 when a Warrant Officer and listed as Assistant Air Attaché at Stockholm on 16/2/1940. Posted to Helsinki 1/10/1947 as Wing Commander. He died at Stockholm 16/11/1952 still in service. Sweden was one of only six countries in Europe which remained neutral throughout the war. Stockholm was one of the very few places with British diplomatic representation and all diplomats, attachés and other staff reported intelligence, took part in the collection of intelligence or performing special operations. Military and political intelligence had to be mixed and the information needed was not only about Sweden, but about other countries in occupied Europe as Stockholm had become a hub for espionage and refugees. Wing Commander Fleet with his multiple language and communication skills would have been heavily involved in these activities. It is interesting that he remained in the region post war and into cold war. S to what his M. Was actually awarded for will be an interesting. We personally believe that his length and breadth of Russian, German and european abilities made him the perfect candidate to act as the Stockholm’intelligence’ man in the embassy, as well as a probably’fixer’ and go between in neutral Sweden during the war and post war during the cold war.
