Lieutenant-Commander Robert William Wainewright, (27 February, 1901 – ) served in the Royal Navy.
I believe The National Archives has his name wrongly transcribed as Wainwright. The Navy List seems to have him right.[Fact Check]
As with many men born c. 1899 or later, his Service Records at The National Archives do not reflect activity between 1931 and 1939 or so.

He served in the battleship H.M.S. Hercules from 6 September, 1917 to January, 1919.
Wainwright was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 15 November, 1922.
Wainwright was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Commander on 15 November, 1930.
