A relative of mine was shipped to America for the duration of WW2...
She was a child at the time (about 6 i believe)
Now, I dont feel sorry for the U-Boat crew for the following reason...
The Ship my relative was on was clearly a civilian vessel...women n kids on decks...
Now the Germans thiught it fair to (Unsuccessfully luckily) torpedo the ship several times,
Said relative still has nightmares about watchin the pedoes headed towards her ship, one did hit, and failed to detonate
So, while I know ppl did as they were told (ie boat crew) but One person decided to fire, and I hope he got what he deserved !
