I'm sorry for not replying sooner but I wrote the Convoy piece and I've only just looked at the threads hanging off the entry. Are you still around as I have a load of information - including accounts of the sinking by two survivors (3rd Engineer amd the Chief Engineer) which I'm very happy to share with you.
