Missing information about the bombs
The section Unexploded Ordnance refers to two bombs but the previous section, Bombing, only gives details about one bomb landing on the ship. Is there any additional information about where the second bomb originated; ie which of the attacking planes? Simon-Hedgerow (talk) 08:53, 7 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I came to mention that as well. It describes the first attack and "a 1,000 pound bomb" they struck the vessel and failed to detonate. Then a second attack, with one aircraft destroyed. Then suddenly we are left with two unexploded bombs to be dealt with. Did the second strike succeed in hitting the vessel? Surely this is mentioned in some of the sources.

 * Fixed it. Found the information in the official inquiry report. The second bomb was released from the plane which hit the main mast (i.e., Guadagnini's). A hole and damage to the mast corresponding to the details of the report are actually visible in the photo. Didn't know how to make the report into a cited source, so I left an annotation to that effect. 2A02:8071:5BD0:D4C0:0:0:0:7BA0 (talk) 21:18, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
