3 May 1942 Loss of Dennis Audrain

Dennis Audrain attempted to escape from the German Occupation with friends Maurice Gould and Peter Hassall. They had gathered photos, maps and details of the German strongpoints and were heading to England. They left on the 3rd of May 1942 but due to issues with the escape boat they were overwhelmed by surf off Green Island throwing the three friends into the water. Sadly Dennis drowned, and Maurice and Peter were arrested after swimming back to shore.
