[8] On 16 March, before the battle really started, Godetia was detached to scuttle a disabled escort trawler HMS Campobello and rescue its crew.
[9] As soon as the Godetia rejoined the convoy during the day of the 17th, there was a submerged daylight attack of U-338 which resulted in 1 merchant ship being sunk.
Together with another escort, the USS destroyer Upshur, the Godetia retaliated with 3 full pattern depth charge attacks on the boat but without success.
The U-305 however could dive before Godetias deck gun could engage her, and since the asdic was out of order by this time, a depth charge attack could not be mounted neither and the U-boat escaped unscathed.
[11] After the dramatic passage of SC-122, the next convoy SC-126 in April 1943 was quite uneventful : thanks to good intelligence it could be rerouted and avoid the german patrol lines.
[16] With the Escort Group B5, in October 1943 she takes part in operation Alacrity : the occupation of the Azores Islands.
[1] On D-day she was part of force L, the escort group for the follow-up waves on the Britisch-Canadian beaches Juno, Gold and Sword.
[1] The Belgian crew left the ship in order to go back to the previous task of mineclearing.
Godetia continued to serve (with a British crew) in a convoy escorting role until October 1945 when she was decommissioned.
