  • Symbol question.svg This article is new enough and long enough and I have added Sturmvogel 66 to the credits. The article is neutral and I detected no policy issues. The image is unclear and I think it is better not used. Template:Ping However I am confused when I come to the hook facts; I take it that the action is that of 26 April 1944, but the flotilla consisted of T23 and her sisters T27 and T29, so where did T24 suddenly appear from? And the article does not state, as far as I can see that they were escorting blockade runners at the time. No QPQ needed. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:50, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
