i'd say Tsukuba at Yokosuka Bay, but the funnels are a bit too small...

Ulan · Post by **Ulan** » 02 Feb 2004 19:32

Still no good answer

Another hint: German Destroyer

alf · Post by **alf** » 03 Feb 2004 06:33

the German Destroyer S50 after Schouwen Bank on 23/1/1917???
She sank the British Destroyer HMS Simoon

Wrong answer!
