wessel Ditmarschen sunk 23/9/1943

Hi,

Colleagues,
Please help me find out which Allied aircraft and how the German ship Ditmarshen (1171) sank off the coast of Crete at night on 23 September 1943.

23 Sept. 1943 CONFIDENTIAL
The convoy of the DITMARSCHEN consisting of three steamers escorted
by two submarine chasers, was attacked by enemy torpedo planes
and bombers while on passage to Crete. The steamer DITMARSCHEN
(1,171 GRT) was torpedoed. The rest of the convoy reached
Candia, without further losses.
