Sub attack on M18?
Posted by: Guido ()

<HTML>Hello everybody,

This is an off topic subject but maybe someone out there can help me. I read a sidenote about the Minesweeper M18 in Jak Mallman Showel´s book about the Kriegsmarine that has puzzled me a little.

It said that at one time during the war two torpedoes struck her but didn´t explode. No date nor position, but this ship spent most of the war in Norwegian waters. However, Rohwer´s ALLIED SUBMARINE ATTACKS doesn´t mention such an event, according to it M18 was part of convoy attacked but not the target herself.

I would be grateful if:

-someone could shed some light into this
-aware that this is not the main topic of this site, you could advice me on another more general Kriegsmarine forum,

Thanks a lot for your time,

GUIDO.</HTML>
