Indeed a rebel he was. I read in the book “U-boat War Patrol: Hidden Photographic Diary of U-564” that when he was pulling up to the dock after his 70-day patrol, he shouted over to a friend of his ashore asking whether the Nazis were still at the helm, and when told yes, he loudly ordered both engines full astern.
He’s very lucky he was one of Dönitz’s favorites. Had a very sad post-war story though.
