He married Elizabeth Cleveland Elworthy, daughter of Herbert Elworthy, on 26 July 1937. He died at the age of 87. William Jason Maxwell Borthwick usually went by his middle name of Jason. He was educated at Winchester College and at Trinity College, Cambridge. He was admitted to the Inner Temple in 1933 and was entitled to practice as a Barrister. During the Second world war, he gained the rank of Commander in the service of the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve. He was decorated with the Distinguished Service Cross (DSC).〔〕 ==Career highlights== Commander Jason Borthwick was a director of naval fighter aircraft, whose captain did not speak to him for a year until he won a DSC. He pioneered Naval Fighter Direction, the science of interpreting radar screens so as to send fighters out on the right bearing, at the correct height, and with enough time to intercept incoming enemy aircraft. He served in HMS Victorious during Operation Pedestal, and on Admiral Ramsay's staff for the D-Day landings in Normandy in June 1944. He was Chief Instructor of the Fighter Direction School, and organised fighter direction in Indian Ocean operations, including the invasion of Rangoon in May 1945.〔''The Daily Telegraph'', 14 February 1998〕
