He was commissioned to Signal Boatswain (act’g) 18/6/45 and Commissioned Communications Officer 23/11/45. He was promoted to Lieutenant on the creation of the “Special Duties Lists” as from 1st January 1957. On 1/10/59 he was appointed Lietenant Commander (SD) and retired from the Royal Navy 11/4/62.
After retiring he was re-employed as a “Ret’d Officer” by the Ministry in a civilian “Retired” capacity due to his considerable communications expertise and was awarded an MBE (Civil) in 1977.
