Publisher's Synopsis
Using a carefully selected range of both wartime images and colour images of surviving U-boat memorabilia from private collections, this book describes 100 iconic elements of the U-Boat service and its campaigns. The array of objects include important individuals and the major U-Boat types, through to the uniforms and insignias the men wore. The weapons, equipment and technology used are explored, as are the conditions in which the U-boat crews served, from cooking facilities and general hygiene down to the crude toilet facilities.
