AL57A-006 Velero III

from SDASM Archives

• Old Salt said:

  This is 1931-built 195-foot yacht VELERO III. (her spelling was variously recorded by different people). I believe she was taken into Naval service in 1941 as the patrol yacht CHALCEDONY (Navy documents record her name as the "ex-VELERO III"). www.alternatewars.com/Archives/Ships_Data_USN/NS-250-011_(138-145)_PY.pdf A search on Google images under her name "VELERO III" yields many good photographs.

  Possibly - www.dib.ie/biography/dawson-william-richard-a2447 "... During the 1914–18 war, he served in the RAMC, gaining the rank of lieutenant-colonel* (1917), as a specialist in ‘nerve disease’ to the troops in Ireland (1915), subsequently became president (1917) of the Special Medical Board which dealt with psychiatric problems among servicemen, and later assisted in organising the Home of Recovery, Leopardstown Park, Co. Dublin. Demobilised in 1920, he was appointed (1922) neurologist and chief medical officer at the Northern Ireland Ministry of Home Affairs, and retired in 1929. ..." * Lieutenant-colonel insignia is a pip and a crown as seen.

  He was an accomplished man. Thom's Irish Who's Who [1923} has a biography including this - Recns.: Mountaineering fishing, photography. Res.: 26 Windsor Park, Belfast. Clubs: Ulster, Belfast; University, Dublin; Swiss Alpine, London and Geneva. See - en.wikisource.org/wiki/Thom%27s_Irish_Who%27s_Who/Dawson,... And his books - en.wikisource.org/wiki/Author:William_Richard_Dawson I imagine this photo is between 1917 (when he became a Lt. Colonel) and March 1920 (when he was "demobilised" from the army)
