William Lawrence Penfield notes that he did not have time to “develop sufficiently certain phases of the question of the sinking” of the Knight Commander in the supplemental memorandum. Although information about the sinking “does not change the essential aspects of the case,” it does support the argument that they should be cautious when “dealing with ‘gift-bearing Greeks.'”
