Re: RFA Tanker bombed in Suez, 12.09.1941?
Excuse my ignorance here
What does RFA stand for in front of the vessel's name? What does HW13/96 SALU etc mean (some kind of ULTRA doc perhaps?) Cheers Stig

Royal Fleet Auxiliary — ships that supply the Royal Navy.
SALU comes from the names of Saltmarsh and Lucas who compiled daily reports of Luftwaffe activity based on ULTRA And Y-Service intelligence.
