Interesting lecture the other day about the Battle of Atlantic at The National Archives in Kew expected it to be one sided ie British Merchant Navy but no it covered the UBoat campeign very well. Talked about U Boat aces the advancements on both sides. Talked in depth about the Happy Times firstly against the Brits and then the second happy time when the americans eventually joined the war. (The Americans failed to heed the advice of the Brits when it came to the convoy system and suffered accordingly). Anyway very good very informative and very impartial the Brits do history impartially so well (Serious)
Whether you were british commonwealth german or inept Americans it gave you a good grounding in the campeign. Life was hard and all involved were very brave men and women, well done the National Archives!!!!
