Looks great
One minor suggestion would be to only use the commander's last name, rather than his full name and rank. BdU alternated addressing U-boats by the boat name (e.g. U47), the commander's last name (e.g. Prien), or the, rarely, a code (usually a random assortment of numbers like 006453). From the messages I have read from the database linked below, the last name was the most common method, especially in the later war. The link below is an example of one such message (an ULTRA decrypt). Anything contained with the double parentheses is an addition by British intelligence so the Admiralty could track which boats had which captains.
