Augustus "Mick" Mitchell
Royal Navy HMS Bedouin
My father Augustus Mitchell was a Newfoundlander and he came over here to join the Royal Navy. He served aboard HMS Bedouin in the Second World War.
I know he was taken prisoner after she was sank.
I have a book which I bought when I went over to Newfoundland. It is named ’Under the white ensign’ and written by a gentleman by the name of Webb.
He also served aboard the Bedouin and he recalls his and others capture and subsequent march.
