He was appointed Warrant Engineer in October 1923; Commissioned Engineer in October 1933; and Lieutenant (E) in August 1938. Between the Wars he served aboard H.M.S.

June 1st was the last day of the evacuation and I think only one or two destroyers made trips after we were sunk. Lieut (E) E. S. Stribley was the Engineer Officer of the ship and I knew him well.
