Uboat Commander's Handbook in original German?

klh · 02-21-08, 02:59 PM

I have a print copy of the English translation of the Uboat Commander's Handbook, and also can find it online. However, I can not seem to find anything in the original German language. Does anyone know where I could find it?

One specific thing I am trying to find is what the German equivalent of "He who sees first has won" would be. I can translate it myself with my poor German skills (Wer sieht die erst gewonnen hat?), but I wondered what the original text said.

"Wer zuerst sieht, hat gewonnen" is the correct translation, but not the original quote.

Hello out there!

How should I understand this question?
Is it like the "Tigerfibel" a handbook with advices?
May it be possible to have a e-copy of it?

Thx

The English translation is here...
http://hnsa.org/doc/uboat/index.htm

You can also buy the print version...
ISBN 0939631210

What I'm hoping to find is a copy in the original German language.

I went to your upload site referenced in your posting and downloaded your one file. It was in English. I converted to German and saved it on my drive. I was unable to grab the graphics. It would not be hard to take your english copy, with graphics, and cut and paste.

If you want my German translation PM me and I will get it to you. Thanks for the English copy,

Could be for simplicity's sake. I found more interesting the statement that it was "impossible" to use the 6x magnification for computing range.
