Lance Godwin

== Lance Godwin ==
"I served the American military longer than you, kid. Don't think you have the moral high ground. I do and I allow only what needs to be done for the greater good."
Lance Godwin was a United States officer and later Seaboard Major General who was known for his lead in the Catskill Offensive and the Battle of Niagara Falls. He led the Northern Army Corps, one of the multiple Army Corps in the Seaboard military.
According to Godwin, he had previously served in the United States military before the Great Collapse. Due to this experience, it's likely Godwin was sought out by Seaboard or he reached out to them, but in either case he was in support of their movement from their beginning.
Lance Godwin was tasked to defend the Seaboard installment in Niagara Falls, New York, however he failed. He was captured in the afternoon of 19 July, 2021, while his garrison was surrounded and forced to surrender. Along with Major Fred Westbrook and Lieutenant Esposito, Lance Godwin was held as prisoner. Following a series of meetings over the next couple of days, Seaboard Major Westbrook gave information in exchange for his life being spared. However, General Godwin and the Lieutenant failed to divulge, and thus, were executed.
