If John wanted to go to the Royal Naval College at Dartmouth in the 1930's, Latin was an entry requirement.
However in ML, he appears to have dropped out on his Latin - so perhaps he was bound elsewhere than Dartmouth. Although as a son of a RN Commander - I would be suprised.
It might he worth noting that if you were in command of a RN ship - you would always be refered to as Captain whatever your actaul rank.
