Pinguin was operating around Australia at that time, including laying mines. She had quite a few successes despite engine trouble, before leaving to attack the Norwegian whaling fleets in the Antarctic. The story is explained in good detail in ‘The Secret Raiders’ by David Woodward and also ‘German Raiders of World War 11’ by Karl August Muggenthaler. There are other sources, but these are two of the best accounts in books. If you don’t have access to them, let me know.



Hope this helps,



Bruce
