Here is a Royal Navy fore and aft set recently donated to me. It is nice shape and has a name associated with it but I haven't had time to research it. If anyone ca tell me more about it like its age and the rank I would appreciate it.

The set most likely dates from the 1930's. Frank Alexander Slocum was born 30 Sept, 1897; was assigned to the HMS Vega in WWI receiving the 1914-1915 star, War Medal and WWII Victory Medal. He also received the OBE and promoted to Commander on 6 July, 1940; retired in 1942......
