<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I found the information in a book by Howard S. Abramson called National Geographic Behind America's Lens on the World. There was no information on the name of the boat or how it sunk. 35,000 copies of the November 1942 issue were sent to English subscribers.</p>

<p>That's a really cool letter to find in your NGM issue, Douglas. I would think that only the British editions had that letter placed in them (intentionally, that is). </p>
<p>Thanks for sharing.</p>
