Simon,

I agree about the need for looking at British source documents on this one. There are too many positions given for the sinking of U 40, and they aren't all that near each other, or even all that near this wreck.

Also, the commonly listed location for U 12 also proved to be incorrect. I wonder if there isn't some sort of systematic problem here and whether the other positions commonly given for, say, 1915 U-boat losses in the North Sea are accurate.

Best wishes,
Michael
