I believe you are correct, it was RADM Christie. That whole situation "down under" (who was in charge of the boats) was a major problem during the war. RADM Lockwood was the guy who finally got the situation corrected. But only after several tragedy's, including Christie's death in a plane crash. Actually, now that I think of it, I think it continued to be an issue till the end of the war.
