Even before HMS Glorious (sunk 8th June, 1940) there was the sinking by U-29 of HMS Courageous on 17th September, 1939. Courageous was originally a first world war cruiser but converted to a carrier in the period between the two world wars.

Terrible journalism or lack thereof on MSN.com. Doesn't take much skill to research 2 carriers were sunk before the Coral Sea battle. First carrier sunk by other carrier based aircraft. Interesting history about the 2 Royal Navy carriers sunk by Germans. They spotted Swordfish planes and realized that carrier must be close.
