This was due to an ill advised mutiny led by a hot-headed Able Seaman named Fry who, in defiance of his senior officers – Royal Navy and Merchant Navy who were also POWs – attempted to set fire to the Portland with his ad hoc group and through their action set in motion a chain of events that led to the deaths of Frank Evans and Arthur Freeman.

Her daughter Frances was born in this camp and became known as the “First British baby born in a German prison camp” Frances has written a book about her parents experiences, “Quiet Endurance” ISBN 978-987-1601-13-4 ([email protected]).Frank is buried in Bordeaux, France.

After spending some time in Grini concentration camp, they were sent to Sachsenhausen concentration camp, where contrary to the Geneva Convention, they were forced to march thirty miles a day on cobbles testing army boots. On 2 February 1945 they were led to execution, in accordance with Hitler's Commando Order of 1942. Godwin managed to wrestle the pistol of the firing party commander from his belt and shot him dead before being himself shot. No superior officer witnessed this act so a decoration could not be awarded. However, his bravery was mentioned in dispatches (posthumously). The citation, in The London RNVR. HMS Gazette, 9 October 1945, read: "For great gallantry and inspiring example whilst a prisoner of war in Quebec.
