On December 19, 2024, Professor Andrew Lambert was awarded the US Naval War College’s Hattendorf Prize for Distinguished Original Research in Maritime History.

Professor John Hattendorf, an overseas corresponding member of the SNR, was in person to hand the award to Professor Lambert. Professor Andrew Lambert, Laughton Professor of Naval History in the Department of War Studies at King’s College, London, received his prize at the U.S. Naval War College onboard Naval Station Newport.

The US Naval War College stated: “We were incredibly proud to join with the Naval War College Foundation to present this much deserved award to someone whose work in the field of naval history has addressed so many important issues still relevant today. His historical analysis of technology, policy-making, regional security, deterrence, historiography, crisis-management and conflict, has allowed scholars and practitioners alike to apply the lessons of the past to the challenges of the future.”
