Bugle belonging to Albert Edward Flory, Royal Marines Light Infantry.

Flory was one of ten men killed on board the light cruiser HMS Castor whilst in action at the Battle of Jutland. He was just 16 years old.

Albert Flory was one of five sons of Arthur Flory, all of whom served in the Royal Marines. Another of Arthur's sons, Frederick Cornelius Flory, died in 1915 from wounds sustained in the Dardanelles.

Arthur Flory himself served for 22 years, was discharged in 1901, and then recalled to service at the age of 56 in the First World War. He died of influenza in 1919.

Every item in our collection requires detailed care and conservation to ensure their preservation for future generations. We have therefore selected a handful of objects from our archive which we believe tell a unique and interesting story and have offered them for you to adopt in support of the new Royal Marines Museum Campaign.

Each object has an overall adoption target against it giving you the opportunity to be an exclusive adopter or a contributor donor to help us meet the overall target.

Any donation through this scheme will help us to safeguard and showcase an important historic collection of global significance through the opening of a new and fitting Royal Marines Museum.

- All adopters will receive a postcard photograph of their chosen object along with acknowledgment on our fundraising web page.

- Adopters contributing over £120 will additionally receive acknowledgment within the new museum including an invitation to the grand re-opening.

- Adopters contributing over £500 - in addition to all the above - will receive an exclusive offer of a behind the scenes museum experience where you will be able to handle their object and find out more about the project from a member of museum staff. NB: due to the complexity of the collections move, objects will not be accessible before summer 2020.
