Convoy WS.14/OS.14

<t> Hello,<br/>

RE: Long Lance - Why Allies did not have them?

<r> Terminus is right about this,<br/>
In fact the only Long Lance torpedo hit at Savo Is that had a bearing on the battle was the hit on Chicago (which did not sink nor cripple her) - because it took Chicago away from the fight(went off in the wrong direction).<br/>
All the other torpedo hits (of ...
