Commander David Crofton Cunningham, ( – 19 December, 1941) served in the Royal Navy.
I have been unable to find a Service Record for him at The National Archives.
Life & Career
Cunningham was awarded the Goodenough Medal for being the Sub-Lieutenant who achieved the highest gunnery examination for the year and who also achieved a first-class certificate in seamanship.
Cunningham was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 1 October, 1935.[1] On 26 February, 1941, he was serving as Lieutenant (G) in the light cruiser Neptune.[2] Presumably, he died when she sank with almost complete loss of life on 19 December, 1941, as he is missing from the Navy List of December, 1943.
