Conscription in the Royal Navy officially ended in 1960. The practice had been in place during both World Wars and was reintroduced in 1939 during World War II. After the war, it continued until the Cold War period, when the need for a larger peacetime military diminished, leading to the abolition of conscription. Since then, the Royal Navy has relied on voluntary enlistment.
