Titel: Greek submarine TRITON 09.01.1941

Hello,

I notice that the attack by the Greek submarine Triton at 0725/9 January 1941 has the target listed as the Italian submarine Beilul?
I think Beilul is not possible as she was operating on that day in the Kaso Straits (east of Crete) while Triton was attacking a submarine west of Othoni (Otranto Straits). A possible target was the Italian submarine Turchese which was operating in an area about 20 miles south of Othoni but could have moved northward. Her patrol report does not give any precise position at this time (0725 hours) and she did not observe torpedo tracks so we can never be absolutely sure.

Herzlichen Dank, Platon, für dieses wertvolle Ergebnis Deiner Recherchen.
Ich kann kein griechisch, und bin Dir für Deine Hilfe sehr dankbar.
Ich habe den Datensatz bereits angepasst.
Herzliche Grüße, Thomas
