Lieutenant Malcolm Fraser Andrew, navigating officer of H.M.S. Hastings, which stranded in the Red Sea on June 11, was found guilty at a. Court Martial at the Royal Naval Barracks, Devonport, last month on two charges in connection with the mishap, and sentenced to be reprimanded.

Captain I. M. Palmer, H.M.S. Centurion, was Presi- dent of the Court, and Captain K. D. W. MacPherson, Captain of Devonport Dockyard, was prosecutor.

H.M.S. Hastings stranded while being raced to port with two officers and a man who had been bitten by a mad cat which was suspected of suffering from rabies. The ship was ashore for seven weeks.

The prosecution submitted that Lieutenant Andrew was to blame for taking a course near dangerous land in darkness from a position which was unreliable, and also for assuming without justification that a glare sighted a few minutes before the ship stranded was the Sanganeb Reef light.

Hastings, who was warned that he need not give evidence unless he desired, said that at no time did Lieutenant Andrew convey the in- pression to him that he was doubt- ful or uneasy about the position at? the ship.

Asked by Captain MacPhe what part the rabies hal in the grounding, Captain Bernion-liodge replied:
