POWS on Doggerbank query
Posted by: PF ()
Date: June 10, 2012 02:30PM

According to [ahoy.tk-jk.net]
Among POWS Lost on Doggerbank were those from USS Connecticut

It seems the listing of USS Connecticut POWS on Doggerbank must have been a mistake:

of 54 personel:
35 got off the ship but were killed by fire when ship exploded
19 captured of whom 1 died on Raider "Michel"; 2 died POWS in Japan and 16 survived
See A Careless Word..A Needless Sinking .p.64 reference only
