German to English
 

Since I cant speak 1 word of german I was wondering if some1 can translate these for me pls. I tried babel fish but it didnt make any sence.

Deutsche Seeverbände = ?

Befehlshaber der U-Boote = ?

Zu allen U-Booten = ?

Thx

Yeah, I'd love to help you out there. I do speak German, so it's tempting. Tell you what, I'll give you the exact same sort of 'help' you offered to me a couple of weeks ago when I needed it, and you took great delight in withholding it.

...

How was that?

Just fine, what I'd expect from u any way. Besides I wouldnt trust u to be honest either, so no loss.

NEXT !

I think that may be because <Edit: NO INSULTS, PLEASE!!! - Gizzmoe>. But I'm just guessing on that one. Your problem could be far worse.

Well at least mine can be defined, sorry to say however that ur's defy's discription.

If you guys want to flame each others asses off do it via PM, NOT IN THIS FORUM!!!

German naval groups

Commander of Submarines

Can you post the complete sentence?

Befehlshaber der U-Boote Zu allen U-Booten

its part of a msg and I have no idea WTH it means, sorry

So it´s a radio message? "Zu allen U-Booten" makes no sense, it should be "An alle U-Boote" ("To all submarines") like in "Attention, message to all submarines...")

"Befehlshaber der U-Boote" would be "Commander-in-Chief of Submarines"

Now that makes more sence,

Its in the HT 1.44 mod "radio msg's"

u have

@"from"@ = @Befehlshaber der U-Boote@
^"to"^ = ^Zu allen U-Booten^

so now would read

@Commander-in-Chief of Submarines@
^To all submarines^

Yeah, it´s also in HT 1.46. I´ll contact Rubini, "Zu allen U-Booten" isn´t correct.

Ahh, sweet. Now It all adds up right :)

Thx

PS : yeah I ment 1.46, my goof.

Hmm, the way I see it now that I have looked at it the msg format is such

From : " @Befehlshaber der U-Boote@" To:"^ Zu allen U-Booten^"

so now would read

From : " @Commander-in-Chief of Submarines@" To:"^ all submarines^"

Probably more like this:

@From: Commander-in-Chief of Submarines@^To: All submarines^|1941/05/23|U-boats in the vicinity...

Sorry but I think u may have misunderstood the syntext :

@from@ = is the sender of the msg but is prefixed with the word "FROM"

^to^ = is the target of the msg but is prefixed with the word "TO"

ie :

From : " @Commander-in-Chief of Submarines@" To:"^ all submarines^"

Type in like u have it :

@From: Commander-in-Chief of Submarines@^To: All submarines^

and u would end up with :

From :From: Commander-in-Chief of Submarines To:To: All submarines

as the actual msg

Oh, ok, I thought you also wanted to add the words "From" and "to" to the text...

NP's, easy to get confused

A little correction... Führer der Unterseeboote is the Commander in Chief of Submarines (a duty that was executed by Dönitz himself), and Befehlshaber der Unterseeboote is the High-Command of Submarines (which is a group of naval officers that take the decisions about submarines).

Cheers :rock:

Well, on the other hand: "From 1936 until August 1939 Karl Dönitz lead the U-boat force as FdU (Führer der Unterseeboote) with a relatively small staff. The title FdU was changed to BdU (Befehlshaber der Unterseeboote) on 19 September, 1939."

So Dönitz' title official was BdU. The entire organisation/command was also called BdU. :hmm:

Where did you find that? Because I don't see it that way. Führer is Chief, Director, so, that should be the title of Dönitz, while Befehlshaber is the High-Command, but one can't be the Chief and the High-Command at the same time. Either he is the Chief or he is part of the High-Command. That makes a lot more sense. :hmm:
