We wrote this one for ElSnorkel.com.

The text is in spanish, but the documents (straight from NARA) are all in English.

Hope it is interesting for the U-boote folks.

Regards!

Thanks for posting. I may try to get a translation so everyone can read it, assuming most here speak English .

Here is the link for the interrogation report for U-530 from uboatarchive site.

When I was a kid I remember reading an old ratty paperback about u977 and how she schnorkeled her way to Argentina rather than surrender to Allied forces after Germany's surrender.

Quite a feat for both boats.

Thanks for the links on the report of Lieut.(j.g.) Otto WERMUTH, Commanding Officer of the German submarine U-530.
