Hi Allan,

interesting question.

Is it possible to get scans of the papers?

I´ve checked the HMA-Datebase on Landungsfahrzeuge:
https://www.historisches-marinearchi...schreibung.php

In the "Gesamtchronik" https://historisches-marinearchiv.de...fz_chronik.php there are 3 cases of actions on 08.12.1943:

The last ones are of the 1. Transportflottille. We have to check the nearer circumstances of their loss.
