hi,
and, using the normal meaning of "report" in a naval logbook, you might as well read it as "RORQUAL reported one torpedo attack [on itself]" ...
Normally, you donīt "report" an own attack.
greetings, Urs

The formula used by Rohwer "RORQUAL reported one torpedo attack after the minelaying sortie which resulted in the sinking of the TICINO" reminds me of the well-known Delphi oracle motto "ibis, redibis(,) non(,) morieris bello": "you will depart, you will return (not), you will (not) die in war" . What resulted in the sinking, the torpedo attack or the minelaying sortie?
