Re: German tankers hit aerial mines 1940
the Palmyre
 from http://www.subsim.com/radioroom//arc.../t-146696.html posted by Caron: "After that in June 18 1940 my father was captain on the tanker 'Palmyre' in St Nazaire harbour. He fled when the germans get there. Is ship not being finished he droped is propeller in tn the middle of the river 'Loire' ans was taken back to the harbour." from http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtop...26299&start=15 "Palmyre - 13,750 GRT - not quite finished when sunk by mine off Saint-Nazaire 18 June 1940. Captured by the Germans, salvaged and turned to Kriegsmarine service as KMS Vierlande" Seems there is some conflict about the Palmyre.
