German ship SINFRA sunk 19/20 October 1943 by ??
Hi guys
Slightly confused!
On 19/20 October 1943, the German freighter Sinfra (ex-Vichy), carrying Italian POWs, was sunk by air attack off Crete. In excess of 2,000 lives were lost.
Most accounts I've seen state that B-25Gs and Beaufighters combined to sink the vessel, while Roy Nesbit in 'Armed Rovers' says she was torpedoed by two Wellingtons of 38 Squadron.
Can anyone enlighten me, please?
Cheers
Brian
