Very interesting description of the sinking of HMS Auckland! My partner's late father (died 1969) was a CPO on this ship and was blown out of the ship during the attack. He always maintained that he was in the water for 13 hours before being rescued, which would be on the morning of 25th June 1941. This account would suggest that survivors from HMS Auckland were picked up quickly. I have another reference to a crew member of HMS Auckland spending 11 hours in the water before being picked up.
