Lieutenant Robert Julian Archibald Cuming, (29 May, 1902 – 19 February, 1930) served in the Royal Navy. At some point, perhaps after 1924, he changed his name to the cumbersome Robert Julian Archibald Cuming Gibson Craig.
Life & Career
Cuming was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 15 July, 1924.
On 13 November 1924, he was severely reprimanded by sentence of a Court Martial for allowing K 22, to which he had been appointed as navigator the previous December, to be stranded.
Cuming died when a car in which he was a passenger fell into a dock in Portsmouth Dockyard.
