Moin Wölfe,

I'm doing some researches of a german Uboatcommander whose name was either "Hans Zillikens" or "Hans Zillekens".

The commander died during a "Feindfahrt",but I have not found out what uboat he served on.
Soooooooo what do u Wolves know about him ?? :know:

Hochachtungsvoll :D

Sure you´ve got the correct Name? Never heard, and Uboat.net doesnt know him too.
You can search for Commanders here: http://uboat.net/men/commanders/z.htm

You can also do a search at ubootwaffe.net

Very good site there too for tracking individual crewmen.

Moin,

the guy´s name is Hans-Heinrich Zillikens. He served on U850, which was sunk on 12/20/1943 west of Madeira by depthcharges and torpedoes of 5 Avengers and Wildcats (Squadron VC-19) operating from aircraft carrier USS Bogue. Besides he hasn´t been the commander of U850.
