Hallo,


Es gibt verschiedene Verlustmeldungen zu einem rumänischen Minensuchboot L.L.REMUS welches am 11. Januar 1940 im Schwarzen Meer in Verlust geraten sein soll.


Gab es so ein Schiff, sank es wirklich am 11.1.1940 oder ist alles eine Legende ??


Grüße


Theo

Locotenant Lepri Remus (ex-Chiffone) was built as one of France's Fripponne class gunboats. Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships lists her as lost on that date in the Danube estuary. Unfortunately, I have no further information on her loss.

Hallo Friends,
According to book "Poteri protivnikov sovetskogo voenno-morskogo flota 1918-1939" (Loses of opponents of Soviet Navy 1918-1939) by K.B. Strelbickij "Locotenant Lepri Remus" (1916, 394 t./?/) sunk 11.01.1941 near Sulina because Romanian own mines laid in summer 1940, when were some problems beetwen Romania and Soviet Union.
Greetings from Poland,
Wawrzyniec

Gunboat Locotenent Lepri Remus, bought from France and built in 1916 hit some mines in front of Sulina, in the same barage she laid earlier. There were not problems between Romanian and Ussr: it was the Ribentrop-Molotov Pakt ( still active even today ) who took Basarabia and North-Bukovina and the USSR invasion plan against Romania.
