why can't I surface the boat?

Lol. I'm pretty sure they say "Anblasen" in most of the key scenes I remember. But you know what's funny, there are some bits of dialogue that I "hear" in English only because I know what's being said, and the German is just close enough to the English equivalent that my brain wants to automatically substitute in the English sounds. A couple of scenes I've even skipped back and watched over because on first viewing I really thought someone was suddenly saying something in English... nope, my ears just heard it that way.

Is the Das Boot sound mod the one that also puts all the music in from the movie soundtrack in place of the stock and/or GWX game soundtrack? I had that running once but found there was way too much background music playing for too much of the game for my taste... also there was at least one track from the movie music that included a "ping" noise IN the track, which kept playing at certain crucial times and freaking me out because I thought I was being pinged in-game when I wasn't.

I'd like to have DB music in game, just not so much or so often, and certainly having other DB sounds would be cool. I have to admit that hearing "Ausblasen" instead of "Anblasen" strikes my ears as odd because "Anblasen" is what I'm expecting.
