Life & Career
Grace was promoted to Captain on 31 December 1914.
He assumed command of the destroyer Grafton in June 1915, remaining in her until July 1917.[1]
In May, 1918, he was appointed in command of Birkenhead, but sometime before mid-December, Arthur M. Stancomb took over as Acting Captain on a temporary basis.[2]
