Das Bernard!

Ok gentlemen, here is my second "what if" scenario , well not really a "What if" scenario, albeit on a less serious note.

If there existed a real life Bernard on board every sub in the German navy, would the U-Boat arm be out of commission as early as 1942?

I suspect it would be out in late 1939 early 1940. All sunk right at the port moorings.

I'm sure Bernard has a lot more optimism than you

Yes Bernard does but the rest of the flotilla do not and I suspect his folks do not either because they signed his paperwork so he could join...they had to get rid of him some sort of way

Well, remember that Bernard also was using the name Adolf in those days...:rotfl:

There couldn't be a real life Bernard because he would have been shot by the Gestapo within a week, accused of sabotage :rotfl:
