Am I crazy? You would think I was if I told you about the U-52 and our dear Komandant, Lt. Balz.

In Cadiz, Balz bought a complete London banker's outfit. Bowler hat, black jacket and striped trousers. Whenever he would see a Briton, he would approach and say, "Jolly gut afternoonz, old chap, vould you some shipping news share with a cricket playing compatriot?"

He learned a new English expression, "float off," he says.

After re-arming and re-suplying and gathering intelligence we left Cadiz. Balz replaced his banker togs for golden silk pajamas and a burgundy smoking jacket, but kept wearing his bowler hat.

He had drawn lines on the chart. "Here's where the crossroads of shipping is and here is where we will sink all the ships that will give us hoochie woochie. And we will have a choir. The choir will sing the Song of the Hoochie Woochie Sirens three times a day to attract ships to our location.

"We will not return to port until we have sent to the bottom one hundred thousand tons of enemy shipping, so you better sing well, alles klar?"

There has not been any peace aboard as we dash from one critical location to another, dive, listen surface, move, dive listen. Sleep depraved, the choir sings.

Have we sunk any ships? Oh yes, we started with a coal barge

to give us hoochie woochies.

Balz the secret agent?

Reminds me of the scene from The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming, in which a group of Russian sailors in costume civvie dress, after careful coaching from Alan Arkin, terrify some poor kid by saying in unison "Emairgency! Eferyone to get from strit!"
