Like his brother, John Skinner Wilson chose to make a career in the services, though John decided on the navy. John enrolled in the navy in September 1898. Five years later he was promoted to acting Sub Lieutenant in His Majesty Fleet, becoming a full Sub Lieutenant in 1904. John was promoted to Lieutenant Commander in 1912.
John was a keen sportsman and played rugby union for United Services RFC and London Scottish FC and was capped for Scotland in 1908-9.
