Naval General Service Medal 1793 -1840 with three clasps for Thomas Durnell private of the Royal Marines with clasps for Java, Basque Roads, and Trafalgar. Naming impressed. During the battle of Trafalgar Durnell was onboard The Temeraire 98 gun, second ship in Nelson`s column behind the Victory. The Temeraire under the command of Captain Eliab Harvey was the first ship to break through the enemy lines during the battle. She was subject to heavy fighting with six ships before being trapped between two enemy ships Redoutable and Fougueux whilst trying to defend the Victory. After heavy fighting with small arms and grenade the crew of The Temeraire succeeded in boarding both ships eventually forcing the enemy to surrender. Following this action both the Victory and Temeraire engaged the Dumanoir and Formidable during the final stages of the battle. Following 1805 Durnell was onboard the Illustrious during the Battle of Basque Roads in 1809 and the Invasion of Java 1811. He died in Greenwich Hospital 7th May 1853.
