The Convoy Battles of the Atlantic

For those of you who don't look at the uboat.net website very often, the site now lists the convoy designations and the many convoy battles that took place. Quite interesting to see some information about any given convoy (and there are dozens listed), how many ships were in any particular convoy, how many escorts were involved and a good narrative of the battle.

Well worth a look.
