Coldditz Comrades

I wanted to add this photo of my father CR Keats(DSO & Bar) of the RNVR and his comrades, which I'm sorry to say I have no details of, was taken at Colditz castle during or at the end of ww2. My father is 2nd from left (back row). I felt I wanted to contribute to this ww2 story, especially as he died in 1968 when I was just a boy and much of his military service is unknown to me.
I would be particularly pleased to learn if any body knows or recognises any of his comrades.
