Yep, famous story there. The guy knew where to get his sources - tried in practice. Too bad for him that it still didn't work. I think there'll be an endless debate on whether Doenitz was a tactical genius or a crank who stuck too hard to an idea.

Regardless, he was definitely a great leader that the U-boat fleet respected.

Graf Spey
 
Talking of videos and pictures, does anyone know where I can get photos of the Graf Spey. I've tried Floating Dockyard but they only do USA ships. The IWM is too confusing; I've spent ages on their site trying to locate a picture.

I ask because I was once on the Graf Spey as a lad, in 1937/38 and would like a picture.

Jimbuna 12-10-06 04:39 PM

WOW :o are you being serious ?...you were on the Graf Spee ? My father would probably love to talk to you about those times way back :yep:

Here are loads of pictures for you to look at....enjoy: :up:

Just a reminder: I have posted all of the WWII & Uboatvideos i could find on youtube, just visit sethproductions (Link under signature). :up:

mr chris 12-11-06 04:21 AM

Jimbuna 12-11-06 06:16 AM
