Historie

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The Battle of the Atlantic was the name given to the conflict between Germany and the Allies over the transportation of supplies and troops throughout World War II. It was a battle between men, aided by all the instruments and devices science could provide, but still one that would be decided by the skill and endurance of men.

#2 The weather in the North Atlantic was as violent as any experienced sailor could remember in midwinter 1943. Because of this, the regular convoy traffic fell away at this time.

#3 The Battle of the Atlantic in 1942 was the most serious crisis the Allies faced. The Allied merchant fleets had lost 7. 8 million tons in 1942, almost 6. 3 million of which was due to the U-boat. The American mass production shipyards were still gearing up to full strength, but their output in 1942 was only 7 million tons, which meant that total available Allied shipping capacity had decreased.

#4 The losses of Allied merchant ships in March and April 1943 were alarming, and it seemed that the Germans were having more success at sinking Allied merchant ships than the Allies were in sinking U-boats.
