		HMS Scimitar was a relic of World War I, part of the package of aging destroyers sent by Roosevelt to the British in 1940.
		The Azalea got the word, but, assuming that the American ships had received it too, did not think to pass it on to her flock; her captain said later that his officers had been “studying” the message when the attack occurred—almost two hours later.
		HMS Onslow, the destroyer that had first sighted the German craft shortly after midnight, had taken off in pursuit after the first LST had been hit, and soon other destroyers joined the chase.
