The article states that Hayton died after his ship, the Laconia, was sunk by U-156.
This edit added detail about Hartenstein’s rescue operation, and his being attacked by an American bomber. I’ve removed it, per BRD, because a) this isn’t the place to go into the why’s and wherefore’s of the Laconia incident, and b) Hayton wasn’t rescued by Hartenstein, then abandoned because of the bombing; Hartenstein was attempting to save the Italian POWs to get himself (and the U-boat Arm) out of trouble with Mussolini. If the lifeboat Hayton was in had British and Polish personnel in (and Hartenstein re-arranged the survivors to separate them all out) then he would have been left at the scene of the sinking; the boats Hartenstein took with him had mainly women and children in. I've also removed the link to the U-boat commander (we don't mention Laconia's captain) and the U-boat image; if we don’t have a picture of Hayton himself, we can do without a picture of the guy responsible for his death, n’est ce pas?
