The bulk of this issue appears to have stemmed from disagreements between Lane-Poole, and the First Naval Member, Admiral Sir Francis Hyde, who in his final years in command of the RAN could display a disagreeable personality. In 1936 Lane-Poole sent a signal to the Naval Board which was considered highly improper and he subsequently received the "severe displeasure" of the Naval Board. Of note is that the Australian Prime Minister, Joseph Lyons, was required in January 1937 to formally advise the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs that Lane-Poole had been punished! Lieutenant Lane-Poole joined the protected cruiser HMS Juno, also part of the Mediterranean Fleet, in March 1905 and served in her until June 1907. He also served briefly in the battleship HMS Jupiter (Channel Fleet) from June to August 1907 before commencing torpedo specialist training at HMS Vernon in September 1907. He successfully completed the torpedo course in September the following year and stayed on at Vernon as an instructor; he was also loaned to ships to assist with their torpedo training and exercises. He served briefly in the armoured cruiser HMS Euryalus in late 1909 before joining the battleship HMS Venerable (Atlantic Fleet) in October that year.Lamb, Rachel (30 September 2000).

At John Ryan’s wedding in 1950, he was introduced by a friend to Marcus Morris, who was launching Eagle, and asked the artist to create a strip for it. When John returned home, he claimed that Captain Pugwash appeared without explanation. [1] It ran for the first nineteen issues of Eagle, but was dropped due to being considered too childish, and John replaced it with Harris Tweed. [2] He is a very able organiser. He has under his command a happy and remarkably efficient ship. He has considerable determination and strength of character and is cheerful under the most trying conditions. His moral character and high sense of duty tend to enhance British prestige wherever he goes. In general he and his ship have done incalculable benefit to the credit of the British flag in the ports of South America and for this result he is mainly responsible.
