"Walker RN" is another great read if you want to read about the U-boat war from the other side. It's a bio on the Captain Jonny Walker, who led the 2nd support group against the U-boat meance.

His Ship, HMS Starling got the most sub kills of WWII, with 13 to the ships tally, including 5 in a single patrol (matched only by U.S.S. England against Japan in the pacific)

He died while on shore leave from accute exhustion.

A fine officer and salior
