Well constructed, will get back shortly. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 11:53, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Section 1

• Para 1; The sentence She had a crew of 400 officers and men is a bit confusing. A reader may get an idea that it had 400 officers alone, and also men not including in these 400. Please correct this.
  • This is a pretty standard way to write this, and there's no good way to change it to fix what you suggest. See for instance FAs like Japanese aircraft carrier Shinano.

Section 2

• Para 3; The sentence The ship's fate after entering Yugoslav service was abruptly cut with a full stop, not giving a information about the fate. Instead of a full stop, a semi colon (;) would help.
  • Good catch, fixed.

Lead

• I suggest replacing the word "purportedly" with its synonym, because most of the standard dictionaries don't have a definition /meaning for the word.
  • This is a common word - I don't know where you looked, but it's in Merriam-Webster, the Cambridge Dictionary, and Dictionary.com (the only three I checked, surely its in others).

All good, address these suggestions and will be good to go. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk • mail) 06:01, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
