| Citation: | Inkerman Barracks, Woking. June 50 - Feb 54. QM D & T E RMP.In addition to being a fine Quartermaster, Major Marriott (who has served for 25 years in the RMP, and is the only Regular Officer in the Corps) has given much spare time to the activities of the RMP Depot and of the Corps in general. He is a fine influence on recruits, takes a real interest in their welfare and is a very active Churchwarden to the Depot Chapel. I am sure that he contributes a bit share to the good spirit in the Corps, and submit that his services are worthy of recognition.Lt Col A J J Somerville-McAlester, OC D & T E RMP.
