Service
Captains
Dates of appointment are provided when known.
- Captain William B. Mackenzie, October, 1925 – 26 April, 1926
- Captain Hugh T. England, March, 1926[6] – April, 1927[7]
- Captain Harold G. C. Franklin, April, 1927[8] – 23 February, 1929[9]
- Captain Henry P. Boxer, 23 February, 1929[10] – 24 March, 1931[11]
- Captain John W. Clayton, 24 March, 1931[12][13] – 1933[14]
- Captain John G. Crace, 11 June, 1934[15] – 15 January, 1937[16] (and as Flag Captain and Chief of Staff to Wing Commander Rose)
- Captain Augustine W. S. Agar, 15 January, 1937[17] – 1 June, 1940[18]
- Commander Edward S. F. Fegen, 1 July, 1939[19] – 28 February, 1940[20] (this seems dubious)
- Captain Francis C. Flynn, 1 June, 1940 – 25 August, 1942
- Captain Francis J. Wylie, March, 1943[21] – October, 1944[22]
There is clearly a disagreement between Agar and Fegen. Flynn's service record says he served vice Agar.
