According to the MOD's official defence statistics glossary (link on article page) and BR 8373 [Naval] Officers' Career Regulations, the naval servcice consists of RN and RM. The other services are not even military so are really unlikely to be included in a military service. In addition, an MOD glossary exists specifically to define such terms. This is also the definition on the template. There is only one (supposed) source for the laternative defintion of a military and civilian Naval Service, which is an inadequate counter-argument.

The glossary in BR1806 appears more detailed, and to me more trustworthy. Andrew Yong 22:40, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
