  • Charles Julian Thoroton, RMLI, was Chief of British Naval Intelligence for the Mediterranean from Gibraltar (and Spain), to North Africa and Greece, 1913-1919. He reported to Admiral Sir Reginald (Blinker) Hall, RN, Head of Room 40. The first full length biography of Colonel Thoroton, RMLI, "Finding Thoroton - The Royal Marine who ran British Naval Intelligence in the Western Mediterranean in World War 1 " is due for publication October 2013. Thoroton was one of Winston Churchill's "brilliant confederacy - whose names even now are better wrapt in mystery". (The World Crisis 1911-1914, Chapter XX.) Published by the Royal Marines Historical Society, the author is Philip Vickers who is a member of the RMHS. He is the author of "Das Reich - Drive to Normandy" (Pen & Sword Books) and has spoken on irregular warfare at the CIA Conference in Washington, DC. "Finding Thoroton" breaks new ground due to its extensive research and access to private papers. Fully illustrated it also features three maps.
