Errors in name of ship

[edit]

1st sentence: "Lembit torpedoed and sunk the German merchant Hilma Lau (2414 GRT) north-east of Bornholm.[9] " from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EML_Lembit "War patrol 2–18 October. Laid twenty mines. Destroyed the Dutch merchant ship Hilma Lou (2,414 GRT) on 13 October." => "Hilma LOu" is the correct name, as there is no German "Hilma Lau". The other question is how was the "Hilma Lou" damaged? By a mine laid by Lembit or torpedo?

2nd sentence: "On 15 October, Soviet submarine Lembit torpedoed and sunk the German auxiliary minesweeper M-3619 Crabeels.[10]" "Crabeels" is not the German name, possibley the former dutch name? 80.151.9.187 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 10:46, 10 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
