A man has been fined \u00a3500 after admitting to dressing as a navy admiral without permission at a Remembrance Sunday event.<\/p>\n

Jonathan Carley, 65, was charged with wearing uniform or dress bearing the mark of His Majesty’s Forces without permission.<\/p>\n

He was arrested at his home in north Wales after images of him wearing the uniform of one of the Royal Navy’s most senior ranks, along with a raft of medals – including a Distinguished Service Order – at a Remembrance Sunday parade in Llandudno.<\/p>\n

Appearing at Llandudno Magistrates’ Court on Monday, Carley was fined \u00a3500 and ordered to pay \u00a385 costs and a \u00a3200 surcharge. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He was seen wearing the epaulettes and sleeve lace of a Rear Admiral, a two-star position that is one of the highest ranks in the Royal Navy, at the event in November.<\/p>\n

Carley, from Harlech in Gwynedd, was seen walking in formation to the war memorial before a wreath was laid by another individual, and then saluted at the war memorial before marching away.<\/p>\n

Concerns were raised by serving and former service personnel.<\/p>\n

Llandudno Town Council, which organised the Remembrance event, confirmed that no-one of the senior rank had been due to attend the ceremony.<\/p>\n

Carley faced a single charge of being a person not serving in HM military forces, wearing without His Majesty’s permission a uniform and dress bearing the regimental or other distinctive mark of the military force, namely The Royal Navy.<\/p>\n

The court was told that is an offence under the Uniforms Act, which dates back to 1894.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
