thats why many serious sub simmers get upset when people keep holding das boot up as some realism guide when it isnt.
it does a better job then most sub movies but its still just a movie and not real

Yeah, that was a really useful answer. For the VIIC type sub that is portrayed in Das Boot, the captains attack station is in the conning tower. Did you read the book? I know it's got letters and stuff, but I'm sure you can make it if you try.
Real sub commanders I know commend the movie for being pretty accurate, but of course - what do they know as opposed to you - a serious sub simmer!
