<HTML>Woody,

I'm just going through the archived forum
and saw your request. This is late but
may help.

The 60th Anniversary Edition of "German
U-Boat 156 Brought War to Aruba February
16, 1942" by W.C. Hochstuhl is avaialble
in the US through the author's daughter:

Jane Getty
115 Hillcrest Dr.
Wayne, NJ 07470

Cost is $15.00. Check payable to Aruba
Scholarship Foundation.

I have copies of first edition which, by the
way, was published in 1962 through Lago Oil
& Transport Co. Ltd., Aruba, N.A. It first
appeared in the company's Aruba Esso News
16 February 1962.

The book is well documented and to date is
the most accurate account of the U-156 attack.
Kelshall's account in Chapt. 2 "Operation
Neuland" of the encounter has serious and
numerous inaccuracies.

Hochstuhl's book will clear up many of them.
