Re: UB 62 and the sinking of Hammar II

Hi Jan,

the KTB doesn‘t mention the crew of the steamer.

The weather was all but fine. There was a SE going with force 5-6 and a swell of 5. The SE has increased up to 7 and the swell up to 6 during the afternoon.

I think it was very difficult for the crew in their boat to keep it afloat and they met their fate in the rough sea. A very sad story, indeed.

Best wishes.

Simon S.
