...failing to stop to pick up survivors, for which the commanding officer was relieved of his command. Generally ships in a convoy weren't supposed to stop for survivors, the idea being to avoid creating an easy target for any nearby U-boats (they would operate in conjunction with aircraft on many occasions). Moreover even assuming no subs were near, one wouldn't want to be still while under air attack either. So can we get a source the CO was relieved for doing his duty to protect ship(s) under his command? Anynobody 21:47Bold text, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Guided Missile?

It is incorrect to refer to the Hs293 as a "guided missile". It is not 'guided', it is 'aimed'. There is no guidance system, and a glide bomb does not fit within any of the categories under the Wikipedia entry for guided missiles.

The bomb dropped from the aircraft was in fact a radio guided missile controlled by the radio operator. My father was on the Rhona and testified to his CO that he watched the missile fly completely around the ship then drop to the waterline and strike the ship just above the waterline on the starboard side blowing a hole completely through the hull. This account was later verified by the son of the German aircraft pilot during a meeting of the survivors of the Rhona. He came to the US at his expense to meet with the men.

Order date of 1941?

Shouldn't the order date be 1921 and not 1941? 99.12.242.16 (talk) 20:09, 1 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
