A very rare and collectable screen badge sailor made of porcelain, in original condition and paintwork. Some aged damage to one corner.

RFA Resource was an armament stores ship of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary. RFA Resource served in the Falklands War and was one of the first vessels on the scene to pick up survivors from HMS Sheffield (having just supplied her). One of RFA Resource's last duties before being decommissioned was to serve as a floating munitions storage for UN and IFOR troops in the former Yugoslavia. She spent much of the mid 1990s in Split, Croatia, fulfilling this role.
