I'm having a problem with a date entry in "Axis Submarine Successes". Have checked the U-boat.net errata list but can't find any mention of that particular page, namely page 262, where it says that the British Mundra was sunk on July 8-1942. I can't get this date to fit at all with Goviken survival reports - some of Goviken's men had been rescued by this ship and were on board when sunk (some were rescued again and landed in Durban on July 7, others on July 8 according to survivor reports). It seems to me the date July 6 would fit better(?). Does anybody have records on Mundra so that I can confirm the correct sinking date?
