Error

Re the para beginning: "On 25 March Thor intercepted..." I would expect to see a source reference. The paragraph is incorrect in at least one aspect, i.e. the statement that rescues were performed "primarily by the Spanish ships Cabo de Hornos, Raranga, and Bachi"; Raranga was a ship of the U.K. Shaw, Savill & Albion Line (see [1] and other references.
