Rear-Admiral Douglas Adams Budgen, C.B., Royal Navy (16 November, 1889 – ) served in the Royal Navy.
Life & Career
Budgen was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 15 March, 1911.[1]
Great War
Budgen served as torpedo officer in Cornwallis from 8 September, 1914 until 9 January, 1917. On 10 February, 1917 he was sent to Vernon for torpedo duties. He stayed there until being appointed to Royal Oak for torpedo duties on 19 September, 1918.
Post-War
Budgen was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Commander on 15 March, 1919. On 28 November, 1919 he left Royal Oak to attend Mining School at Vernon. On 25 September, 1920, he was appointed in command of the Skylark, evidently a constituent of H.M.S. Vernon. He was superseded in her on 2 January, 1922[2]
Budgen was promoted to the rank of Commander on 31 December, 1923, eleven days after wedding Audrey Nöel Kendersley at St. George's in Hanover Square.[3]
Budgen was promoted to the rank of Captain on 31 December, 1930.[4]
Budgen was appointed in command of the light cruiser Capetown in July, 1934.
World War II
Budgen was promoted to the rank of Rear-Admiral on 15 January, 1941 and placed on the Retired List the next day.[5]
He was appointed as Naval Officer in Charge, Simonstown on 17 November, 1939, serving with the rank of Commodore, First Class. This appointment was renewed several times, reaching into 1941 as his health apparently faltered. One evaluation from Admiral Willis said that Budgen never got out of Simonstown to visit outlying ports before a direct order moved him to venture forth.[6]
He was surveyed at the Royal Naval Hospital, Cape of Good Hope and found to have angio-neurotic oedema on 5 May, 1942 and declared fit for shore service in a temperate climate. A series of hospital stays peppered his time well into 1943.[7]
