For the Military operations in connection with the re-conquest of the Sudan, only two of Her Majesty’s Ships - Scout and Melita - were ordered into the operational zone. Their ships’ companies earned the Khedive’s Sudan Medal, without clasp, after at first being refused it, 139 medals being given to H.M.S. Melita, and 149 to H.M.S. Scout. Medals to Melita were awarded unnamed; those to H.M.S. Scout were named up on the initiative of Scout’s Captain.
