Hello,
I've just found out that "on 12.04.1916 British Q-ship Wyandra (ex Baralong) unsuccessfully attacked German U21 just south of Malta, and again in Messina Straits following day." How does it look like in Hersing's KTB, Michael ?
Second - did Hersing try to score for a third time after "Majestic" ? I've read a German brochure about U 21, it says that he did, in certain "Kephalo Bucht" and was caught by nets then. Is it correct ?
Third - how many freighters did Hersing sink on Med (except "City of Lucknow") and after return to Germany ? I would be grateful for a list, thanks in advance.
Hope it's not to much for you, experts...
Best regards -
Burt
