I forgot all about that part. He did indeed go on (I think) three patrols with two different boats. Your points about not using real numbers are great as well.

I would love to read some of his other books, but IIRC none of them have been translated into English.

I understand that he wrote two more novels about the same characters, and no, neither one has been translated.
His real book, U-Boat War, which chronicles real events and is full of pictures, is indeed available in English, and quite good.
