Hi John

U-124 attacked convoy FTT-4 on 16 December and sank TREWORLAS close to Trinidad on 28 December. Mohr encountered two tankers and an escort early the next day, but had to give up an attack when one of the diesels broke down and a Catalina of VP-53 damaged the boat with 4 depth charges. It is possible that the ships sighted were part of the convoy TM-1, which had left Trinidad on 28 December. On 1 January 1943, U-124 was unsuccessfully bombed by a Catalina of VP-53 and finally attacked the convoy TB-1 on 9 January.

Best regards
