Commander Francis H. H. Goodhart.

Commander Francis Herbert Heaveningham Goodhart, A.M., D.S.O., Royal Navy (10 July, 1884 – 30 January, 1917) was an officer of the Royal Navy.

Service

Goodhart was appointed as captain of the submarine D 3 on 15 October, 1912.[1]

Goodhart was awarded the Cross of St. George by Tsar Nicholas II for his role in sinking the armoured cruiser Prinz Adalbert while in command of E 8 on 23 October, 1915.

Goodhart died in a diving accident while on loan to the submarine K 13 on 29 January, 1917 as he was awaiting his own K 14 to be completed. He attempted to escape the sunken submarine along with her captain, Godfrey Herbert, but failed to escape the conning tower where his body was later discovered.
