He was demobilised and placed on the Retired List at the rank of Commander R.N.R. on 20 April, 1919.[2]

World War II

His Service Record appears as if it would not mention WW2 service if there were any.

In 1948, Miller claimed an exemption from service due to age and poor health. He was living on Fleet Street in London at the time. He was removed from the Retired List on 29 November 1954.[3]
