Hello Iambecomelife,
thanks for the links, there is so much hearsay that it is good to see some real evidence. And while in one link the sinking was 1944, the other already happened in 1940. Hmm for what i have read most commanders would have refrained from sinking a ship executing a rescue, but certainly not all.
What i meant is that at a temperature of the atlantic, in any other than summer conditions, swimming survivors would be dead by hypothermia before they could be rescued - speaking of minutes here - even if there were rescue ships.
Greetings,
Catfish
