Rear Admiral Charles Gage Stuart , DSO , DSC (2 February 1887 – 1970) was a Royal Navy officer who, at the end of the Second World War , became Head of the Military Government of Guernsey .
Naval career

Stuart joined the Royal Navy in 1906.[1] He served in the First World War , earning the Distinguished Service Cross for his role in the sinking of the German Cruiser SMS Dresden at the Battle of Más a Tierra in March 1915.[2] He later received the Distinguished Service Order for service in the Baltic Sea in 1919.[3]
Stuart became Captain of the Dockyard at Malta in 1932, Captain of the Dockyard at Chatham in 1935 and Captain-in-Charge at Simon's Town in 1937.[4] He came to prominence at the end of the Second World War when he took control of the Island of Guernsey from the Germans in May 1945 and led a military government there until he was relieved by Lieutenant General Sir Philip Neame , the first post-war Lieutenant Governor of Guernsey in August 1945.[5]
