Summary
| Description |
English: The Royal Navy during the Second World War On board HMS RODNEY the Master at Arms (left) reading out the names at the "Captain's Defaulters and Requestmen" parade. A Defaulters and Requestmen parade is a court (petty sessions rather than courts martial) for both trying minor offences by defaulters or hearing pleas and petitions whilst aboard ship. It takes place at the break of the quarterdeck on a ship at the same time each morning. As the sailor in this image is still wearing his cap in front of the Commander he is a 'Requestman'. Defaulters have to remove their caps. |

Licensing
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.  |
