REINSTITUTED.
BRITISH NAVY RESERVE. British Official Wireless. RUGBY, January 29. Fleet orders announce the reinstitution of the "immediate reserve," which existed from 1912 onward, but lapsed after the Great War. It comprises that portion of the Royal Fleet reserves whose personnel undertake to come up for service at any time when called upon by individual notice, even though no Royal proclamation calling the reserves into service has been issued. The new class will be open to leading seamen, able seamen and equivalent ratings who have had from seven to 12 years' service in the Fleet and joined the Fleet reserve on their discharge.
