Reginald Ambrose Cave-Browne-Cave (21 October, 1860 – ) served in the Royal Navy.

Life & Career

In 1880, the young sublieutenant was barred from leaving the perimeter of the naval college in light of a disturbance he had caused at Charing Cross Station on 1 May. On 28 August, he was hospitalised for syphilis. This proved protracted, as he was not discharged until 9 November. He was given a month of leave to regain his health before reporting to H.M.S. Excellent.[1]

On 25 March, 1881 he received his 2nd class certificate in gunnery with 500 marks. Cave-Browne-Cave was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 11 July, 1882. While he also passed a short course in torpedoes in 1883 with 302/350 marks, he was to become a signal officer.[2]

On 30 May, 1883, Cave-Browne-Cave was appointed as Flag-Lieutenant to Sir A. H. Hoskins for the summer cruise.[3]

On 3 July, 1885 he was made Flag-Lieutenant to Rear-Admiral Heneage, second in command of the Channel Fleet.[4]

On 16 December, 1886 he was invalided by a concussion sustained while fox hunting, having been kicked in the head by his horse. He was given two months before being re-surveyed.[5]
