Memoirs of João de Azevedo Coutinho. Having enlisted in 1880. Rare and interesting.
Azevedo Coutinho (1865-1944) became a midshipman in 1882 and, two years later, a midshipman. In 1885, he began his internship in the Indian Naval Division, which he completed and went to Mozambique for a new commission in 1889. There he commanded the gunboat Cherim, when Serpa Pinto arrived in Africa with the mission of maintaining Portuguese control in the Chire and Ruo region, on the eve of the ultimatum. On January 15, 1891, upon his return to Lisbon, he was received in apotheosis and the parliament declared him a benefactor of the country. At the time, he was only 25 years old, but his resume already included important services for the country, having been the leader of the surrender of Chilomo, the peacemaker of the ruler Gambi and imposing Portuguese rule in the area from Ruo to Milange.
