"Light cruiser GALATEA departed Alexandria, reached Malta on the 27th, left again on the 28th and arrived back at Alexandria on the 30th." Of actions listed "today," ships I could check out survived the war, except this one:
December 15, 1941: "Hit by salvo of torpedoes fired by U557 whilst entering swept channel 30 miles NW of Alexandria [Egypt]. Sank In three minutes. 150 survivors were rescued by HMS GRIFFIN and HMS HOTSPUR."
U557 was accidentally sunk that same day by an Italian torpedo boat, all hands lost.
