Battle of the Atlantic Convoy Resources

Statistics about Allied losses of men and ships in the Battle of the Atlantic vary widely. Not a lot to go on out there, sad to say.
So if you have any good references, please post them here. K?

There is a good effort here: http://www.usmm.org/battleatlantic.html

To wet your whistle:

"The victory was achieved at a huge cost, however. Between 1939 and 1945, 3,500 Allied merchant ships (totalling 14.5 million gross tons)
and 175 Allied warships were sunk and some 72,200 Allied sailors and merchant seamen were killed.
Germany lost 783 submarines and 30,000 sailors in this campaign.
