From the forward of Clay Blair's "Hitler's U-Boat War"
Not providing any evidence, nor taking a position--but thought this would be a good discussion away from dev issues of game:
From forward page XIII of Clay Blair's Hitler's U-Boat War: The Hunters, 1939-1942
"The myths notwithstanding, only a tiny percentage of Allied merchant ships actually fell victim to U-boats. Ninety-nine percent of all Allied merchant ships in the transatlantic convoys reached assigned destinations." (Bold mine)
This may be known to all you guys--but it surprised the he** out of me.
