Re: eBay: Allied intrest
The Sunderland was L5804 of 230 Sq which on successive days in June 1940 sank two Italian submarines. Piloted by F/Lt. William Campbell on June 28,1940 it sank the Italian SSM Argonauta . The next day it repeated the same feat by sinking the IT S/M Rubino, landing near by to pick up the 4 survivors. Later on, it sank in a gale on February 25,1941. It appears to have been salvaged but was abandoned to the Germans
