<HTML>A new possible inconsistency in Rohwer from Siri\'s site:
On page 19 in Rohwer we can read about three attacks against ships that are said to belong to HX 48. They are:
U47 sinks straggler \'Balmoral Wood\'
U38 sinks the norwegian \'Italia\'
U38 sinks the dane \'Erik Boye\'
According to other sources (Hague) these ships did in fact belong to HX 47. Looking at departure dates for the two convoys, I suspect that HX 47 is the correct one.
It\'ll be interesting to see what Ted and Rainer can come up with.
