The Browne Award is presented to the author of the article in Soldiers of the Queen in the relevant year which is considered to be the best for either academic content, originality, outstanding interest or, hopefully a mix of all three criteria. It is voted for by the Council at their March meeting and, if possible, presented at a Society event.
It was introduced at a Council meeting on 1st October 1988 and the first award was made in 1989. The following is a list of the winners to date; there were no awards in 1990,1992,1997 or 2003 as the Council did not consider that there was any article of sufficient merit in those years.
