Remembered Today:

I have attached three extracts from the record of an Royal Naval Division (RNVR) man:

I see that he was rated A.B. H.G. (twice, I think). Was this Able Seaman (Higher Grade) or something similar?

 

It seems to be the equivalent of lance corporal.

 

Was this an appointment in the RND only?
