Thanks Yves and Michael.
I had not detected before the mention of the KTB's about it. At least in regard to the events on the Catalan coast.
Still, it's a data meaningful. Thank you very much for the appreciation.
It is true that the castaways, mentioned that they had always questioned by the ship's name, although this could be circumstantial, given the circumstances of the sinking war events.
The "field work" done on our dives could support the hypothesis that the names were removed from the hull.
In part may be logical. Why provide clues to the enemy?
Kind regards.
