Re: Allied airmen rescued by German U-boats

Rainer

I don't contest that here and there Whermacht
Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine commanders acted on
human rather barbaric instincts , no need to cite Rommel
your sub gangs examples or Luftwaffe pilots who elected
to hold the fire , escort crippled 8th AF bombers then salute
the enemy .

What I contest is that in general Kriegsmarine was politically
trained and motivated ,acted barbarically against the British and Allied
fleet and convoys in WWII something you as sub historian
understands it lots better than me and having said that there is no need
to extend the debate beyond these facts .
