Dear Ken,
Many, many thanks for your information that has ended with a mistery that has lasted 72 years for all the passengers of that ship Nyassa which saved us from the horrors of nazism.
I congratule your most heartily for your capacity and ability to clarify that encounter for which the passengers imagined all kinds of explanations. Some of the explanation was that we were not attacked because the ship was carrying nazi propaganda to Mexico !!!
I'm about to publish my father diary of the trip that took us from Marseilles to Veracruz and when it comes to comment the encounter wity the german submarine ( which I know now was U-214 !!!) it can be said that all the passengers and the portuguese crew were very worried about the end of the story .
Thanks once again for your information .
Artur
