He was a Captain in the 5th Dragoon Guards and took part in World War I. He was wounded in the First Battle of Ypres and subsequently sent to England for surgery and recuperation. After the war he published a book The World Significance of the Russian Revolution, the first of his anti-Bolshevik and anti-Semitic public activities. During 1922–25, Pitt-Rivers held the position of Principal Secretary and Aide-de-Camp to his father-in-law Lord Forster, the Governor-General of Australia. His experience with the Maori led to his lasting interest in anthropology, which he studied at Oxford under Bronisław Malinowski. [6] In the summer of 1953, Lord Montagu of Beaulieu offered his friend Peter Wildeblood the use of a beach hut near his country estate. Wildeblood brought with him two young RAF servicemen, Edward McNally and John Reynolds. The four were joined by Montagu's cousin Michael Pitt-Rivers. At the subsequent trial, the two airmen turned Queen's Evidence and claimed there had been dancing and "abandoned behaviour" at the gathering. Wildeblood said that it had in fact been "extremely dull". Montagu claimed that it was all remarkably innocent, saying: "We had some drinks, we danced, we kissed, that's all." [3] Pitt-Rivers, Montagu, and Wildblood were charged. Pitt-Rivers and Lord Montagu denied the charges and denied also that they were homosexual. [4] After an eight-day trial at the Winchester Assizes, on 24 March 1954, Pitt-Rivers and Wildeblood were sentenced to 18 months and Lord Montagu to 12 months in prison as a result of these and other charges. Their case led eventually to the Wolfenden Report, which in 1957 recommended the decriminalisation of homosexuality in the United Kingdom. It took ten years for this to happen, with the Sexual Offences Act 1967.

He also served briefly in the battleship HMS Jupiter (Channel Fleet) from June to August 1907 before commencing torpedo specialist training at HMS Vernon in September 1907. He successfully completed the torpedo course in September the following year and stayed on at Vernon as an instructor; he was also loaned to ships to assist with their torpedo training and exercises.

Gunner 22275407 Robert Edward DOWKES 170th Independent Mortar Battery died 6th October 1951 aged 20Rear Admiral Lane-Poole has high professional qualities and has in many ways advanced the technical and fighting efficiency of the Australian Squadron considerably. His considered reports are excellent and he looks at all sides of a subject, is very thorough and takes long views. Unfortunately, his good qualities are frequently obscured by a testy and intolerant personality. My own relations with him have been excellent, and he is loyalty itself; but there were unfortunate passages between him and the Naval Board in my predecessors time (Admiral Sir Francis Hyde). He has antagonised the Press and there is, I am sorry to say, little doubt that the Squadron and Sydney in general feel no great sorrow at his leaving.

Lane-Poole was appointed to HMS Vernon in November 1915 for more specialist training in torpedos and mines and was promoted to Commander on 30 June 1916. In September of that year he joined the battleship HMS Commonwealth as her Commander (second in command). He served in Commonwealth until July 1917 during which time the ship was part of the Nore Command based in the Thames Estuary.

His plan was that up to 40 boys would be entered each year of which 12 would be scholarship cadets for naval service and remainder would be fee paying cadets. Thus the cost of maintaining the college would be reduced. This became known as the Lane-Poole Scheme but the Australian Naval Board ultimately rejected the concept. Of note is that the Great Depression forced the RAN College to be relocated to Flinders Naval Depot in mid-1930 and the 1931 entry was cancelled due to the excessive cost of keeping the College open at Jervis Bay. Richard Hayden Owen Lane-Poole was born in Richmond, Surrey on 1 April 1883. His parents were Stanley Edward Lane-Poole, Egyptologist and Professor of Arabic at Trinity College in Dublin, and Charlotte Bell Lane-Poole (née Wilson). He was educated at Bedford School, Bedfordshire and entered Britannia Royal Naval College as a Cadet on 15 January 1898. He graduated in May 1899 and served, under training, in the protected cruiser HMS Talbot and the first class cruiser HMS Crescent. We strive to be transparent and to work with an open culture.
