At 22 I was in my second inner city police force and I was a housholder and father. That was normal before this current crop of tattooed cannabis snappers
My namesake, Capitan Otto Kretschmer was called "the school boy" because he looked so young. He developed the technique of getting inside the convoys and torpedo los in all directions. He was captured and spent time in Canada. My grandpa said we were not related. He later became the head of the German post war navy.

Lucky to have anyone survive the sinking at all. Most U-boats sank with all hands. A truly brutal casualty rate they had
Completely agree! Thanks for watching and have a great weekend :)
Can you imagine. A 22 year old commanding a submarine??? I won’t let my 22 year old drive my hot rod
Absolutely insane/incredible! Thanks for watching and have a great weekend :)
you should have a talk with that kid's parents!
Young people are the best fighters. They believe, they are Immortal.

I think 22 year olds were a bit different then they weren't busy choosing what to be that day

Wow, very cool! Thanks for watching and have a great week :)
Kretschmer never became head of the German post-war navy.
That is my information. It was in the late fifties or sixties.@@mikeryan3701
Thanks!
Surprised that they survived
Damn, sending rookies to duty in a sub isn't prudent. Dealing with adversity must be practiced. No wonder so many subs were lost.
Indeed. Appreciate you watching and have a great weekend :)
Nem az ujjoncok miatt veszett el annyi U-boat hanem mert feltalálták a sonárt 😮
The ramming looks like a clip from the film "The Enemy Below"
Pretty sure it is haha. Thanks for watching and have a great week :)
An eccentric lad

Glad you enjoyed it :)
Be careful what you believe from so called armchari historians and even the official ones.
What’s up
Stellar example of totally crap writing. Waste of good film clips.
Don't like it, don't watch it!
