10 Mar 1942 | 0240 | (0) 156° - Cape Otranto - 5 miles. | At 0240 hours, H.2 reported sighting a torpedo track which missed her a few metres ahead. No Allied submarine operated in area at the time, so the "torpedo" was probably a porpoise . Note: Topazio reported receiving the signal on 9th March, which means that the transfer dates of Topazio or H.2 may be incorrect. | |||||||
