Hudson joined the expedition whilst a 'mate' in the Royal Navy. He earned the nickname of 'Buddha', when the rest of the crew successfully tricked him into dressing-up in little more than a bedsheet for a 'fancy dress' party on the whaling station at South Georgia.[1] During the expedition, Hudson was famed for his ability to catch penguins, which the crew used as a source of food whilst trapped on the ice. It's also known that towards the end of the expedition, Hudson suffered a severe breakdown of mental morale, possibly due to a massive boil that he developed on his buttocks. His illness caused Frank Wild, the second-in-command, a lot of worry that he would not survive. However, Hudson pulled through and eventually recovered his health.[2] Upon return from the expedition, Hudson took part in World War I, serving on 'mystery ships'.[2] He later also took part in World War II as a Royal Navy Reserve Convoy Commodore. Hudson died on 15 June 1942 on convoy HG84 when his ship, the merchant vessel PELAYO, was torpedoed by U552.
