Hello Platon,

It seems as if the plot thickens. What at first looked as a typo with regards to the date of loss now looks like a fully fledged mystery.

At least, thanks to you, we now know that Thrasher had nothing to with the loss of the Virgo Fidelis.

Perhaps kpp knows if a german u-boat was involved. Personally I find it hard to believe that a german sub would have conducted offensive operations in that area. For a second I thought it might have been Sealion but she seems to have operated near Ushant, so I guess whe will have to be ruled out.

For the moment I'm stumped, hopefully someone will be able to furnish more information.

Best regards,

Jan-Olof
