Commander (retired) Reginald Harry Bunyard (2 August, 1883 – ) was an officer in the Royal Navy. One Service Record, at least, records his middle name as "Henry".
Life & Career
Born in East Dulwich, London.

He served in Flirt from the outbreak of war until falling ill on 23 March, 1915. At the end of the month, he was placed in the Amazon.[2]
