NY Times
editI was looking up articles about something else and ran across these in the New York Times.
- November 16, 1941 - on the front page MALAYA DAMAGE CLAIMED BY NAZIS; Berlin Credits U-Boats With New Feat in Addition to Sinking of Ark Royal
- September 14, 1943 - U-Boat Skipper Who Sank the 'Ark' 'Sunk' and Captured by U.S. Plane; Captain Lieutenant Guggenberger, Who Won Knights Cross for Torpedoing British Carrier, Loses Fight Off Brazil
- September 21, 1943 - U-BOAT CAPTAIN INJURED; Capt. Guggenberger, Who Sank Ark Royal, in Brazil
Unfortunately, the full text for all three are behind paywalls. One item that looks interesting is that after his ship was sunk he was first taken to Brazil. The URL for the search that found these is here. --Marc Kupper|talk 07:59, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
