Re: Attack on HG-73, 26th September 1941

Rainer,

From the General Steam Navigation Co History, STARLING picked up 36 survivors from CERVANTES when she was sunk, perhaps crew from AVOCETA where among those that wre taken from the water after there unfortunate second sinking. As you say, there was probably some confusion over HMS STARLING and GSN ship STARLING (which was the only GSN survivor from the OG-71 & HG-73 convoys).

Regards,

Mark
