Re: Suhren - Ohioan

Hi Eric

Suhren couldn't identify the attacked ship because the attack was carried out submerged and he was not able to question the survivors due to an aircraft present in the area. Actually he underestimated the size of OHIOAN and claimed the sinking of a 5000 GRT freighter, but from the date/time and position there is no doubt that U-564 sank this ship.

Best regards
