I rather hope somebody has a book about Uboat aces with a "wrong" ace list

Hi!

Well, if you want an authentic list of unverified claims (as opposed to verified sinkings), then going to the contemporary German source material is probably your best bet. You might find a list lying about somewhere, but you wouldn't necessarily know if it accurately reflected the wartime claims....

These lists have the corrected tonnage scores, I seek the original ones.
I suppose I really have to get "hunters of the seven seas" by Franz Kurowski!
:rotfl:
But that would mean:
Spending 10 euros for a book that I know is very bad, written by Germany's most prolific writer (1000+) books of doubtful political standing (to put it mildly), in the hope that it is as bad as I think it is!
Just for a damn list...
I think I rather ask at Uboat.net
