SLt/Lt Lloyd Westland

Alfred G. Beardmore  Lt 2 Dec 41                 XO January 1948

We can safely assume that most of the Commanding Officers with the exception of the first dating back to 1923 would have at one point served as Executive Officer but there is no documentary evidence to that effect.

Lt  Fred C. Aggett      XO 1943 for Cdr McFetrick, CO of HMCS QUEEN as LCdr 1944-1945, later President of Navy League of Canada in 1963

Lt Art Ashton
