Burma Naval Volunteer Reserve (BRNVR) Officers
1939-1945

Looking for details on a BRNVR officer not listed here yet?
Just e-mail me, and I might be able to help out.
Of course, any additions, corrections etc. can also be e-mailed.

Note. In naval circles it is custom to refer to the commander of a vessel as Captain. The Navy List bears the phrase "in command". Strictly out of practical considerations CO (Commanding Officer) is used here on this site.
Although in Birmese names the first element is the family name, the Navy List tends to use the western style of treating the last element as family name, which is followed here.
