Loss of S-21
Hello!
Working through the KTB of the Seekriegsleitung Juni 1940 at the moment I can´t find the loss of Schnellboot S-21 on 21.June 1940.
Some post war sources say that S-21 sinks on 21.June off the french coast.
The KTB reports the loss of S 32 off Dungeness by mine but not the loss of S 21. Could this some kind of mistake in post war sources?
Any confirmations of one or the other version?

Thanks..
Thanks Marcus!
I wonder how they could "oversee" the loss of the boat. Usually they report even the loss of small guard and Vp-boats.

My information is that it hit a mine. In 1941 it was raised.
