| Additional information |
Convoy SL 64 departed Sierra Leone in October 1940 and was attacked by the German auxiliary cruiser Widder — one of the Kriegsmarine's disguised merchant raiders — resulting in the loss of several vessels before the scattered survivors reached port. Gibraltar's ongoing series commemorating Atlantic convoy actions reflects the territory's central role as the western anchor of Britain's Mediterranean supply chain throughout the war.
