Note the report in column 1: "Nazis Claim Capture of Submarine" |
(The report was true, HMS Seal had been captured after the boat has been damaged by a mine. It was towed to Germany and later commissioned into the Kriegsmarine as UB. However, it was never a operational submarine in the German navy. It was destroyed in a British air raid in May of 1945.) |
