Submarine HMS Severn (N 57)


22 Jun 1941
HMS Severn (Lt.Cdr. A.N.G. Campbell, RN) fires torpedoes at, most likely, an Italian Argonauta class submarine in the Gulf of Naples in position 40º44'N, 14º20'E.

26 Jun 1941
HMS Severn (Lt.Cdr. A.N.G. Campbell, RN) torpedoes and sinks the Italian merchant Polinnia (1292 GRT) about 95 nautical miles south-west of Ischia Island, Italy in position 40º05'N, 12º08'E.

28 Jun 1941
HMS Severn (Lt.Cdr. A.N.G. Campbell, RN) torpedoes and sinks the Italian merchant Ugo Bassi (2900 GRT) 5 nautical miles bearing 185 of Cape Monte Santu, Gulf of Orosei, Sardinia, Italy.

7 Aug 1941
HMS Severn (Lt.Cdr. A.N.G. Campbell, RN) fires torpedoes at a so far unidentified enemy submarine in position 34º48'N, 13º04'W. All torpedoes missed their target and no German or Italian submarine in the area reported being attacked. U-93 was passing through this area roughly at this time but this is pure speculation on our part. Also the Italian submarines Finzi and Marconi were operating in this area.
