SS Gogra, carrying 7,000 tons of military stores, including ammunition, was torpedoed and sunk by U-124 at 1855 hours on April 2, 1943 about 320 miles west of Oporto. The master (John Drummond), 75 crew members and six gunners were lost. Five crew members and three gunners were picked up by Danby, transferred to the New Northland and landed at Freetown. Only 10 British Officers are commemorated on Tower Hill on Panel 52 and only 1 of the 6 gunners lost has any known commemoration. As the Gogra belonged to the British India SN Co. Ltd, the rest of the crew were from the Indian Merchant Navy and sixty-seven are commemorated on the Bombay/Chittagong War Memorial.
