This said U1018 attacked BTC 81 in company of U-327 and both were destroyed. There's no source for this, and it isn't mentioned for U-327 at Uboatnet, or in Blair, or Kemp, or Neistle (Niestle queries whether U-327 was even in the area, having been posted missing on 13 Feb, and may have been destroyed as early as 3 Feb; he suggests the second attack that day was on U-1208); Also, Wemyss describes both attacks and AFAIR they weren't linked. So I've taken it out altogether, rather than asking for citations. Xyl 54 (talk) 04:55, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
