G'day Regulus,

According to Jones 'War in the Air Vol II' the ship attacked by Edmonds was never claimed as sunk. Layman in his article states;

"Neither was it offically claimed that the ship hit by Edmonds on 17 August 1915 was sunk -- only that it was set on fire, gutted and eventually taken to Constantinople."
