It's like an open-ended story each of us is invited to contribute to, by adding a new episode. The story of an u-boot attack and what happens after that. A pity it's in German only.:cry:
I'd like to contribute, but the time I learn German, the war will end.:D

Get a copy of Lothar Günther Buchheim's DAS BOOT in german and in english put both versions side by side and you will see how easy it get's (that way I learned english with Hunt for Red October :D)

The Kaleun takes a minute to make the hard decision and finally shouts out:
