Notes: * There's a notation for Pecten (from HX 28) saying "engine defect 30/3/40". * Suderholm, Adula and Point Arena lost touch with the convoy on 22/23. Conus did not sail - instead she went out with the next convoy, HX 30. Commodore was in Sulairia, Vice Commodore in Beaverford, and Rear Commodore in Pacific Star. Ocean Escorts: HMS Ausonia and S/M Beveziers. To the next HX convoy in my list HX 30 |
