A key feature of the Royal Marines Experience will be the Remembrance Room. The Remembrance Room aims to reflect and represent the human cost of sacrifice and the impact of service on individuals. Visitors are invited to take time to reflect and contemplate, remembering those who came before us. Three walls will display photos in memory of Royal Marines.

To create this room, they are seeking images of Royal Marines who have passed away.  They invite supporters to submit photos of loved ones who served in the Royal Marines and are no longer with us. This is intended to be a thoughtful space for reflection on the cost of service; this should be borne in mind when considering which images to submit. It is not intended as a traditional memorial, nor as an exhaustive list or record of Royal Marines’ casualties.

Eligibility:

Images submitted should show individuals who served in the Royal Marines including the Royal Marines Band Service, and have passed away, whether in service or later.

When in service, this may include, but is not limited to, those killed in action, those who died of illness during active service, those who died in accidents during training or on operations, or those who died as a result of mental health conditions – such as, but not limited to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

If the image is of someone who died after having left the Corps, this can relate to age, illness or those who died because of suicide, or mental health conditions – such as but not limited to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
