Yes, I remember when my father-in-law applied for his own record. After about 14 months he complained, saying he would be dead if they didn't hurry up (he was 90 at the time). The envelope arrived about a week later! On the other hand, when I applied for my father's record it came in under two weeks, but that may have been because he was in the RAF (with fewer service personnel) not the army/navy.
