the fate of U 513 is not correct, because the last CO between 15/05/1943 to 19/07/1943 is Kapitänleutnant Friedrich Karl Guggenberger "Ritterkreuz u.Eichenlaub" made only one war patrol without return 139 days, sank 5 ships 23.118 ton.
The boat sank by Mariner aircraft from VP-74 Sqn.USN 46 hands lost and 7 crew members including Guggenberger were rescued by seaplane tender USS Barnegat and made POW.
