Q ship HMS Lothbury was apparently in action with a U-boat off SW Scotland on the above date. I have been trying to identify the submarine in question but I can find nothing in Spindler at least nothing relating to HSF activities.

Can anyone enlighten me as to the identityof the U-boat. I note that a significant article in the respected maritime magazine 'Sea Breezes' was devoted to this episode in July 1920 and a sinking was claimed. This was no sinking but something took place.
