Question

true or false?
early in ww2, the british lacked enough ships to form convoys

Answer 1

True. Early in World War II, the British faced significant challenges, including a shortage of merchant ships and naval escorts, which made it difficult to form convoys effectively. The loss of ships during the early stages of the war, especially due to German U-boat attacks, exacerbated these issues. This vulnerability was a major concern for the British as they sought to maintain supply lines across the Atlantic.
