<HTML>I believe Kennedy is in error.
'Darlington Court' was carrying something like 8116 tons of wheat when she was sunk as part of Convoy HX-126 and was sunk by U-556 on the 20th, along with 'Cockaponset' and 'British Security'. 'Darlington Court' had 25 KIA.
'British Security' was carrying a fairly large amount of benzine and paraffin. She lost 53 KIA.
'Cockaponset' was carrying a varied cargo including steel and TNT. I believe the entire crew survived this one.
