The Action

Файл:Dd245reubenjames.jpg
USS Reuben James was the only loss from convoy HX 156

31 October 1941

The Шаблон:GS sighted the convoy at dawn on 31 October 1941, and torpedoed Шаблон:USS as the destroyer approached to investigate the Huff-Duff bearing of the sighting report.[3] A torpedo struck the port side and detonated the forward magazine.[3] The hull aft of the third stack remained afloat for 5 minutes; and 44 men were rescued from the crew of 159.[3]

Reuben James was the first United States warship sunk during World War II.[4] U-552 was driven off by the escort; but Шаблон:GS found the convoy that afternoon.

1 November 1941

Task Unit 4.1.3 handed the convoy off to the British 6th Escort Group on 1 November 1941.
U-552 and U-567 made two unsuccessful torpedo attacks on 1 November and maintained contact with the convoy through 3 November.[2] Шаблон:SS launched her Hawker Sea Hurricane to intercept a Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor aircraft, which it chased off. The Hurricane pilot was rescued by Шаблон:HMS after ditching his aircraft.[5][6] The convoy reached Liverpool on 5 November.[1]
