He worked for the Cunard Line before moving east to command steamers in the South China Sea. During WW1 he served in the Indian Army on the North-West Frontier and Mesopotamia. He was with General Townshend on the ill-fated advance on Baghdad and narrowly escaped capture by being seconded to the Royal Navy to take a gun-boat down the Tigris.
