This category contains those officers who studied at Gilderdale & Mercer – a private preparatory school for boys wishing to apply for entrance to the Royal Navy through competitive examinations. It was located in Southsea, and was one of only a few "crammer" schools seemingly in operation in early 1911, when four of its graduates were among the seventy-five candidates accepted for the January, 1911 intake term at Royal Naval College, Osborne.
History
Thomas Gilderdale and Donald Mercer had previously been associated with Eastman's Royal Naval Academy.
