Jura had originally been scheduled for Convoy HG 20. |
Notes: Commodore was in Matiana, Vice Commodore in Patia. British Pride's original destination is given as Southampton, diverted to Sheerness (reason not provided). Winga lost touch on the night of March 2/3, and it looks like San Conrado took her place in station 93 (her station number 43 is crossed out on the A 1 form and the number 93 added by hand). Tunisia left with engine defects at 11:45 on March 7, proceeded to Falmouth for repairs. Commodore's notes are not available. Escorts: Related external link: To the next HG convoy in my list HG 21 |
