Bertram Arthur Mitchell was born at Milton Abbas, Dorset on 23 January 1896 who enlisted in the Royal Naval Reserve on 21 April 1915. Appointed from Magpie to the drifter New Dawn from 31 August 1915, Mitchell joined Monty from 19 March 1918. He was duly awarded a 'mention' in respect of minesweeping work (London Gazette 17 April 1918, refers). Having also served aboard Christobel from 17 July 1918, Mitchell also appears to have returned to the fold during the Second World War.
