Hi all,

British patrol vessel Pintail was mined and sunk in the Humber 10/6/41. Time?

Thank you very much
Jordi

Pintail was part of the escort to coastal convoy FN.77. At 11.50 one of the ships in the convoy, the Royal Scot, detonated a mine. Pintail altered course to go to her assistance but as she approached the scene was blown up when she also triggered a mine

Thank you David!

Regards
