Default Ok you book worms

What book is this from?


"1916 (About August)

At last! Thank Heavens, my application has been granted. Schmitt told me this morning that a letter has come from the Admiralty to say that I am to present myself for medical examination at wilhelmshaven to-morrow.

What joy! to strike a blow at last, finished for ever the cursed monotny of inactivity of this High Seas Fleet life. But the U-boat war! Ah! that goes well. We shall bring those stubborn, blood-sucking islander to their knees by striking them throught their bellies."

Have Fun!

It's also part of the 2008 Submarine Almanac. You mean you never bought a copy?
