ROBERT ANDREW ELLIOTT (53-58) died on August 7, 2018 as the OP Society has recently learned. He was a retired Lt. Commander Royal Navy. His last known address was in St. Agnes, Cornwall.
At The Nautical College, Andrew was in Form V1 Science and Macquarie Division. He became Chief of the College in Lent Term 1958.
The October 2018 issue of Navy News provides some detail about his service in the Royal Navy including postings in many well-known ships of the time such as HMS Ark Royal, Invincible (during the Falklands conflict), Hermes, Intrepid and Illustrious. Also recorded by Navy News are stints with 3 Commando Royal Marines and with the Sea Cadet Corps.
The last Pangbourne event Andrew attended is believed to have been the 2010 OP Dinner. In retirement, he had an interest in sheep farming. We have no further information.
