This article uses a reference named "Her Majesty’s Naval Service Eligibility and Guidance Notes" from 2014. It would be good to see the following: 1. Documents prior to 2014 which refer to the verbose phrase of "Her Majesty's Naval Service" Keith H99 (talk) 15:36, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oh dear, the editor doesn't know when this occurred either. What a mess [1] Keith H99 (talk) 23:41, 12 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What does it matter 'when' it came into use? According to the RN, it's in use now. But apparently, it goes as far back as 1844. - ^theWOLFchild 00:33, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I believe this page is now mistaken as it lists the royal navy and her majestys naval service as two separate entities when they are not they are the same thing. Also the royal navy is listed as a separate branch from the royal marines and royal fleet auxiliary when they are 2 of the five fighting arms of the royal navy. Also the first 2 sources of this page no longer exist and no mention of the her majestys naval service as it's own entity can be found anywhere. Jdare1999 (talk) 16:17, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed the same thing. I’m going to do some digging on this. Garuda28 (talk) 01:29, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
