Hi Antonio & Others

Well Done..it seems correct to me. U-73 (VIIcool smiley was on an experiment
trip in February 1943 when the boat was severely damaged by an
explosion in her diesel engines room. The U-boat end up on the
dry docks in La Spezia (photo) where she spent four months under
repair. The boat later sunk on the 16/12/1943 by gun fire shells
from the destroyers USS Woolsey & USS Tripp.
