John,

Just out of luck as I have copies of the m first half of the March logbook for Malaya, nothing unfortunately for the end of March.

Not an exact date but this narrows it down a bit.

[www.naval-history.net]

March
29th Arrived at Port of Spain, Trinidad.where temporary repairs were carried out. (For details see HITLER’S U-BOAT WAR by C Blair.) On completion took passage to New York for repair.

April
6th Arrived at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and taken in hand for repair. She was the first RN vessel to be repaired/refitted in the USA in World War 2,


It was probably about a four/five day passage from Trinidad to NY.

I didn't check Blair for details.

Regards,

Mark
