Admiral SIR Allan Frederic Everett, K.C.M.G., K.C.V.O., C.B., Royal Navy, Retired (22 February, 1868 – 22 January, 1938) was an officer of the Royal Navy.
Early Life & Career
Everett attained 994 marks in the entrance examination. Because four candidates who had been nominated for the Navy had failed the examination, and another candidate's health precluded him from joining, cadetships were given to the five candidates who had scored the highest in the exam. Everett had placed fourth.[1]
Everett was promoted to the rank of Commander on 30 June, 1901.[2]
Captain
Everett was promoted to the rank of Captain on 31 December, 1905.[3]
Great War
Everett was promoted to the rank of Rear-Admiral on 27 April, 1917.[4]
Post-War
Upon the dispersal of the Grand Fleet, Everett received command of the Eighth Light Cruiser Squadron, dated 10 March, 1919.[5]
On 3 May, 1922, he was promoted to the rank of Vice-Admiral on 3 May, 1922.[6]
He was appointed Commander-in-Chief on the China Station in succession to Vice-Admiral Sir Arthur C. Leveson, dated 10 September, 1924.[7]
He was advanced to the rank of Admiral on the Retired List on 8 November, 1926.[8]
