Description:
I think this is an RE model, but the ECE serial number brings that into question. It was made for the US Navy and has MIL-I-17623 designation, meaning it can withstand a nuclear blast among other things.

I started passively collecting typewriters in college. 20-some years later, it's now time to do something with them. (cue cleaning and refurbishing montage)
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal RE on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal RE By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
