"Radio signal 1851/19/252: "F T 1132/19 "

Message from a dead man. That's probably from U-252, which was sunk promptly thereafter. U-252 managed to sink only a single allied ship.

U-252 - Sunk at 2230hrs on 14 April, 1942 in the North Atlantic south-west of Ireland, in approximate position 47. 00N, 18.14W, by depth charges from the British sloop HMS Stork and the British corvette HMS Vetch. 44 dead (all hands lost).
