Hi all!
As I have probably mentioned, I am doing some research about the u-boats my grandfather served on during WW2.
(U-990, the u-boat seen in my sig, and U-2512)
Thanks to the guys over at http://uboatarchive.net/ you can, if interested, read the English version of U-990s fourth and final patrol here (http://uboatarchive.net/KTB990-4.htm).
I decided to start with the shortest diary first to get a feel for the vocabulary used in the original versions. Patrol 3 will most likely be next.
Translated war diaries of a few other boats, Hardegen's U-123 during "Operation Drumbeat" as example, can also be found at:

Enjoy! =)
