Casualties

[edit]

The article has, citing Conway's, "just two crewmen lost", but Jentshura has "only 8 survivors". Japanese dispatches in contemporary British newspapers have 8 casualties, including 2 deaths, noting that the ship took 20 minutes to sink and that the complement was "about 220". I suppose that Jentshura et al (or their translators) have misunderstood? Pinging MChew. Davidships (talk) 12:41, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
