    One u-boat captain, Reinhard Hardegen, decided to read a book while being depth charged. The idea was to set his crew at ease - “if the old man isn’t worried, it’ll all be alright”.
    Then one of the crew quietly pointed out to Hardegen that he was holding the book upside down!

    I agree, such an amazing movie. i'm a 101st Airborne Division Veteran and have always highly respected those that served on submarines. But, today I toured a WWII submarine for the first time. My respect for these people has quadrupled. Even the best movies have not adequately depicted just how courageous these sailors were to operate under such conditions in confined spaces that make the movie scenes pale by comparison. Wow. I'm so proud to be a member of a species that has produced such astonishing men.

      One of the few service sub-branches with a higher casualty rate than the bomber crews or the infantrymen was the U-boat crews. I think the end-of-war survival rate was around 25%. 1 in 4, for every single man who ever stepped foot in one during the war... We who are about to die, salute you.
      Subs are weird like that. Like a bomber but without any parachutes, and with a lot more dudes in a lot smaller, scarier place... they say the actual dying in a sub is not terrible (usually), but the depth charging is hell before the fact. I'll take my chances in a C-130, thank you very much.

    It must've been absolutely terrifying for them. They didn't call them iron coffins for nothing. It's ironic that by wars end Germany had developed the much faster XX1 type boat fitted with snorkels, but it was too late. Think they only had 39 operational boats at the start of the war, and over 300 by the end. If Hitler had agreed to Donitz's request for more boats earlier, the outcome of the battle of the Atlantic could've been much different

    Just out of interest I read a bit about modern U-Boats. Sure, they are technologic advanced and basically never involved in actual combat, but it still frightened me to learn that american U-Boats basically never surface after leaving the base. They go underwater for 60 to 90 days straight. On board is an 18 hours cycle, you have no internet or other connection to the outside world (for example you can't write your relatives). Imagine not seeing the sun for about a quarter of the year.

      this is only possible on nuclear powered submarines - oxygen is created via electrolysis and CO2 is removed via scrubbers, that can be regenerated with electriciy - the only reason why they need to surface one in a while is to get food supply for the crew or crew exchanges - the nuclear fuel lasts for decades. For example Ohio-Class for example is desigend for a refuling cycle of about 20 years.

    According to the book, depth charges shaking the boat like this were more than 200 metres away. Any bomb closer than 60-80m would crack the boat, depending on depth and position. That's why the old man wants to go deeper: the water pressure contains the explosions a bit, and charges are less likely to hit from below, where most of the delicate bits are, coolant pipes, propeller shafts and so on.
    Seeing the charges go off in such proximity to the boat I find confusing: I wonder why:
    A: the Tommies tickle the boat to death with tiny depth charges instead of using one serious bomb, and
    B: the Fritzes even bother with evasive action.

    • @chasemandes3041
      @chasemandes3041 3 года назад +3

      Destroyers would have trouble storing big bombs, also would weigh down ship making it slower and easier to blow up , also would make resupply difficult. German subs defense at this time against depth charges was to dive and wait for destroyer to run out of depth charges. I think that guy tallying on the chalk board was counting number of death charges. I believe a destroyer would carry 30 depth charges

      If they had them shown at greater distance, they would have had to show the boat from greater distance. Aside from practical considerations with the models and tanks used, it would have made the boat nigh invisible in the murky water.

    • @givenfirstnamefamilyfirstn3935

      The deadly explosions were very close. The Royal Air Force greatly increased their kills when they reduced the depth charge detonation depth to a quarter of what it had been. They exploded nearer to just submerged U-boats. The surviving crews thought that the air dropped depth charges had become much more powerful.

    It's absolutely shocking the mortality rate for U-boat crews once the Royal Navy had ironed out their tactics and ASW procedures. I don't know exactly when the tipping point was, but those early-war successes quickly became a distant memory for the slaughtered U-boat crews.

    You're joking right? A depth charge can crush a hull of a submarine like a tin can. It's not the explosion of the charge itself. It is the shock wave of the blast. The explosion displaces huge amounts of water that sends the water expanding in all directions. The displaced water quickly fills in the air gap from the explosion causing a wave of water to come back. This forces the hull of a submarine to bend and twist very rapidly.

The leaks were so dangerous that they were strong enough to rip human skin and flesh apart instantly if touched.
    Isn't it still dangerous to be infront of water shooting out like that in this scene? Or were pressure differences in piping different back then?
