Incorrect dates of troop convoy on HMS Orcades

In the 2/3rd Battalion's January 1940 War Diary, it is shown that that Battalion departed several days earlier than the article states. ^[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.182.52.76 (talk) 12:29, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

G'day, the War Diary seems to state embarkation on 9 January and movement to midstream anchor around midday that day. Added this as a range to take into account the other ref, too. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 23:52, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
