In "Over The Front" magazine there is a translated reprint of the Nachrichtenblatt der Luftstreitkrafte (communication report of the Air Service)on page 269: A Greek Steamer which was sunk by a U-boat on 27 May (1917) while en route from New York to Bordeaux was carrying among other things, 67 airplanes and airplane engines, according to its cargo list. This looks like the "Efstathios" sunk by the UC21. Just thought you all would like to know. Anyone have any other details ect. Correction: its in OTF volume 23 No3.
