Admiral Commanding Coastguard and Reserves
From The Dreadnought Project
On 31 March, 1923 the greater part of the Coastguard was transferred to the Board of Trade and the Board of Customs and Excise. Consequently, when Vice-Admiral Sir Hugh H. D. Tothill succeeded Vice-Admiral Sir Morgan Singer on 24 July of that year, his title became "Admiral Commanding Reserves."[1]
