BCRS errata

In BCRS Vol 5 P151 29 Mar 43 in the Artic VVS air attacks on Axis shipping it mentions the steamers Ajax 2297 BRT sunk and Bahia Castillo 8550 BRT damaged both probably by submarines. In checking through the book " Allied Submarine Attacks of World War Two European theather of operations 1939-1945" by Jurgen Rohwer has

Ajax was sunk on this date by the Soviet submarine S-101

Bahia Castillo was damaged , towed in and later broken up by the British submarine HMs/M Narwhal on 1 May 40. Some accounts have this ship credited to the S-101

Lets just say trying to match up who sank what ship can be sometimes as frustrating as who shot down what plane!
