U 159 attacks on 5 June 1942
Posted by: Brian V. ()

According to the Allied ships attacked entries, the boat attacked the Braz s/v Paracuri at 2000 hrs and the Honduran s/v Sally within the next 10 minutes in the late evening of 5 June 1942, yet the positions indicated for the sinkings are in excess of 106 nm from each other, a physical impossibility.

Can anyone clarify this and give the correct position of the attacks?
Thanks, regards,
Brian
