Revision as of 10:33, 20 November 2017
Captain (retired) Reginald Becher Caldwell Hutchinson, D.S.C. (18 August, 1882 – ) was an officer in the Royal Navy.
Life & Career
Hutchinson was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 15 September, 1902.[1]
He incurred Their Lordships' "severe displeasure" in the grounding of T.B. 3 in 1909, and was superseded in command on account of this misstep on 22 July and was loaned to H.M.S. Vindictive to conduct a test of the Humber defences. On 23 September, 1909, he was appointed to the armoured cruiser Sutlej, having been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Commander on 15 September.[2]
Hutchinson was appointed in command of the destroyer Thrasher of the Seventh Destroyer Flotilla on 10 September, 1912 and then to her flotilla-mate Success on 14 October. His command here would extend fully to the outbreak or war in August, 1914.
Great War
On 30 August, 1914, Hutchinson was superseded in command of Success and appointed in command of the destroyer Liberty.[3]
When Able Seaman Edward W. Holmes drowned following the capsizing of a whaler off Gallipoli on 19 February 1915, a Court of Enquiry told Hutchinson to exercise greater caution in future.[4]
Hutchinson was promoted to the rank of Commander on 30 June, 1915. On 13 August, he was appointed in command of the Acasta Class destroyer Achates.[5]
Hutchinson would command the destroyer Achates when she fought at the Battle of Jutland as part of the Fourth Destroyer Flotilla.[6] Shortly after the battle, he was appointed in command of the Plover, which he would command into May of 1918, albeit with a temporary absence when he was admitted to a hospital ship on 28 July, 1916. He rejoined his command on 16 August.[7]
He was appointed in command of the monitor M.31 on 20 June, 1918.[8]
Post-War
Hutchinson was made Senior Naval Officer, Palestine on 21 December, 1918. This appointment ended in mid April, 1919. In May he was appointed to Thalia, additional, as S.N.O. "Thuro" (?). On 18 September, he was appointed to President for temporary service with the Naval Adviser to the Ministry of Labour.[9]
Hutchinson was placed on the Retired List at his own request with the rank of Captain on 12 September, 1928.[10]
World War II
Hutchinson was placed in command of the yacht Lady Vagrant upon her commissioning sometime around October, 1939. In mid 1940, he was placed in command of Calliope (a ship whose identity escapes me) and as Naval Officer in Charge, North Shields.[11]
