H.M.S. "Campbell"

at Sea.

1st July, 1935.

Lieutenant-Commander Berwick Douglas, Royal Navy,

has served with me in the same ship, squadron or fleet of

His Majesty's Naval Forces during the past 12 years.

My

knowledge, therefore, of his qualities is based on an

acquaintance of comparative long standing.

In my opinion he will not fail to justify his selec-

tion for any responsible position where executive ability,

including power of command, initiative, and knowledge of men

in the forces of the Crown, is a most important consideration.

(Sgd.) FREDERICK JOHNSON,

Captain.
