At 11am on 8th October 1918, Stoker Petty Officer Samuel R. Morgan and AB Jesse Brammer were in a whaler in Milford Haven, with a fresh breeze blowing, when the wind capsized the boat throwing both men into the water. Morgan with difficulty kept Brammer afloat until they could be picked up. Case sent to RHS by the Admiralty who granted Morgan their bronze medal for saving life.
After the war Morgan served on HMS Indus, Vivid II and Hawkins before being loaned to the Royal New Zealand Navy in 1924, where he served onboard Laburnum, Diomede and Dunedin.
