Just finished reading "The Bravest Man" about Dick O'Kane and reread the portion of John Keegan's book "Battle at Sea" about the epic battle between two convoys and about 40 U-boats crossing the Atlantic. So much rich historical material and Hollywood always has to butcher it. Never understand why they can't just stick to the real history which can be so interesting and engaging.

Oh well. May go see it or wait for Bluray. Hope it is not SJW'd to death.

Reading "Das Boot" for the first time too. Fascinating and scary stuff.

Thanks for all you guys do keeping the history alive.
