Andre verdenskrigMT Thorshavet

MT Thorshavet var på reise fra Trinidad i konvoi med 15000 tonn fyringsolje for New York og Storbritannia. Skipet ble torpedert 3. november 1942 av den tyske U-160 dagen etter avgang utenfor  Trinidad og vest av Martinique. Folkene gikk i livbåtene, men da skipet holdt seg flytende, gikk man om bord for å lete etter tre savnede. Den ene ble funnet død, mens man så ikke noe til de to andre. MT Thorshavet ble forlatt synkende samme dag, og de overlevende ble tatt opp av en jager. Tre mann omkom i forliset.
