the matter is settled. This morning
/ received word from the Office of
the Chief of Naval Operations in
Washington. Therefore - young
men of the new Army and Navy
notwithstanding - the authority
of the following information is
above question:
THE REAL RULES: ''It is not cor
rect to address Junior Officer,
even a Lieutenant Commander by
title except aboard ship of which
he is the Executive Officer. There,
if he is, say, a Lieutenant Com
mander, he would be spoken of as
"The Commander" and would be
properly addressed as "Comman-
DER without the addition of his
name. Likewise, an officer of what
ever rank, if in command OF
ship, is given the courtesy title
of "Captain," without name e
unless the name is necessary to
identify him among several COM
manding officers of different ships.
But, except in such cases. 1t is
bad form to address any officer by
his title alone. 1t is proper to say,
Colonel Grey or Admiral Green
rather than Colonel, or
admiral just as it is proper
to call a civilian MIR. Brown and
not just Mister
ut is true that during the last
war. with the influx of reserve and
temporary officers. particularly on
shore establishments, there crept
in the habit of orally addressing
officers below the rank of Com
mander by their titles. This was
never done aboard ship and among
officers of the Regular Navy. nor
is it good form today.
.In oral official communications
officers below the rank of COM
mander are properly addressed as
Mister An officer below the rank
of Commander is properly intro
duced by title, but thereafter
sbokeu to as Mister For example:

Officers in the

those below the

tion is twofold:
first, shall you ad-

Mister; second,
shall you address
them by title alone.
