Abstract
An understanding of the officers of the executive branch of the Royal Navy between the two world wars is impossible without first understanding their service, the Royal Navy, and them in the sense of who they were as a part of that service. Unfortunately, the literature is quite sparse, and unsupported assumptions abound, in large part because officers of the Royal Navy prior to and during the First World War (and indeed subsequently) have attracted so little attention.
