Notes:
* There's a Norwegian D/S Munin listed on this website, but the the tonnage for the Munin in this convoy is given as 99 gt.

* The tonnage for Trio is given as 1494, and nationality Swedish. According to R. W. Jordan's "The World's Merchant Fleets 1939" the Swedish Trio was 1739 gt. There was also a Finnish Trio, which was 1451 gt, in other words, closer to the tonnage given for the Trio in this convoy.

No further details are available on this convoy.
