ALTHOUGH THE MOBILISATION of the British fleet was never completed it is now revealed that nearly 30,000 men were at their posts within three days of the mobilisation proclamation being signed by His Majesty.

HJA Majesty signed the Proclamation at 11 a.m. Five hours later the first reservist reading of the situation from his morning newspaper had reported to his depot,
