      2 reasons why a sub would surface. Either they are damaged and their ballast tanks are not responding to submerge and two they probably stayed below for more than 24 hours. WWII subs cant stay for long underwater unlike modernsubs, one way or another they need to surface.

      U boats were on the surface a lot more than they were underwater. A very large number of ships killed by u-boats were on the surface. Underwater they couldn't move very fast and generally speaking a single destroyer was usually plenty to kill one. What's more, submarines in WW2 couldn't stay under for very long.

He owned a classic mustang and on the floor it was littered with coins l picked some up and they were from all over the world. I asked him why and he said he used them in parking meters. He said some were from countries that no long exist. He was and inventor and made toys in his spare time and sold them to Hasbro and others.

    For all the armchair historians, who like to say: "This would never happen . . ." or "No uboat captain would have . . . " I suggest you read the account of the capture of U505 by Captain Dan Gallery of USS Guadalcanal. Our ships forced the uboat to the surface with depth charges. The crew abandoned their boat and our sailors boarded from small boats, disarmed the demolition charges and captured the submarine. It was towed to port and is now on display in Chicago. I've read about the action, but heard it the first time, first hand from my father who was an electrician's mate third class aboard USS Pillsbury when it happened. And by the way, I served eight years in the US Navy

    • @DBSTH0R
      @DBSTH0R 3 года назад +1

      Two reasons why this would never happen:
      1) U-505 example you listed above - no chance in dueling with a destroyer, hence they surrendered and used demolition charges
      2) extremely unlikely they would even be able to man the deck gun in those waves, let alone use it or hit anything
      Complete Hollywood fiction. Fun, not even remotely accurate.

    A friend of my Grandfather's was a career navy man, had already been in 5 years when WW2 started. He was on a destroyer in the gulf of Mexico in 1940, they were doing a training exercise with a US Navy S-boat, one of our subs. The exercise was to do find him and track the S-boat with sonar, then do a mock depth charge run. Well, his ship was tracking this sub, kept tracking it but it kept moving out of the training area, so the destroyer he was on kept with it. About an hour later, the Captain of the S-boat radioed the destroyer and was wondering where they were and why they hadn't commenced the exercise. It seems the destroyer my Grandfather's friend was on was tracking a German U-boat doing their recon runs and was headed back out to see. He said the worst part was, they had no real depth charges on board, had the U-boat decided to try and sink them, there wasn't much they could have done about it.

    If you want the factual truth there are plenty of books written by destroyer captains and U-Boat captains. The movie just gives you a idea of what it would be like to patrol and die in the Atlantic during the war. It's not a documentary, just a movie.

    Despite some historians absolutely cringing their rears off at this scene, it showed further ingenuity from the German opponent. Instead of just running away after being forced to surface, where the escorts would likely obliterate them instantly, the sub went extremely close range and in between Dicky and Greyhound so neither could hit them effectively while the U-boat crews got the deck guns manned. May be over the top historically to some, but it definitely had some significance

    For those who don't believe destroyers, corvettes and Uboats engaged in surface combat with each other, they absolutely did. Canadian naval historian Gordon Laco, a consultant for "Greyhound," cites the following in an interview on Global News:
    In advising on the battle scenes, Laco was inspired by close-up, real-life fights between Canadian ships and submarines - HMCS Assiniboine vs U-210, HMCS Chilliwack vs U-744, and HMCS Oakville vs U-94.
    To highlight "the fighting spirit of the Canadians," he inserted a line said by an American sailor into the script: "Go get 'em, Dickie!"
    "The close, savage action we showed in the film really happened, and it was really done by Canadian warships," he said.

      @Fred Bloggs Not so! Google HMCS Assiniboine and one of the links will take you to the Juno Beach museum website where there is a complete report of the action written by the destroyer's captain and pictures taken during the battle. They finally rammed the Uboat two times and then it sank.

      @Fred Bloggs Well, neither did the Uboats in the movie. They had to surface because of damage and decided to fight. That's what the U 210 did. It did not surface and surrender ... so what is your point? Did you even read the wartime report of the battle by the HMCS Assiniboine's captain or look at all of the pictures from the fight that I showed you how to access???

    • @nicholasotto2822
      @nicholasotto2822 3 года назад +1

      @@ToddSauve Be careful when providing sources. U210 did fight on the surface making it more of an exception. The circumstances of why the captain decided to fight it out are unclear. Both U744 and U94 surfaced to evacuate and not fight as indicated by the accounts of the battles and the numbers of survivors picked up after the U-boats were sunk. There were also numerous other cases of decorated U-Boat combat skippers surfacing to abandon ship and not fight it out (see the accounts of U110, U99, U162)Typically battles on the surface were the exception and not the norm as U-boats were extremely vulnerable to gunfire(a single shell could compromise a U-Boat's ability to submerge which was it primary means of defense). In this situation where the U-Boat was crippled and under attack by two escorts they would have surfaced to abandon ship and scuttle the boat. I think the 'historical' consultant may have been better served reading first hand accounts of the war in the Atlantic like Lothar Gunther Bucheim's(Bucheim served as a war correspondent on a U Boat cruise) Das Boot for a better understanding of the mindset of the U-Boat service. Similarly he could also have consulted Nicholas Monsarrat's(who also served in the Royal Navy on corvettes and destroyers during WW2) excellent(though fictional) The Cruel Sea. Instead he seems to have cherry picked a couple of examples to justify the film producers desire to have an exciting close quarters battle on the surface. Just because U-boats did rarely fight destroyers on the surface does not mean that the film can be held up as an example of accurate historical storytelling it should be viewed as a somewhat fantastical adventure much like the Enemy Below(minus the nuance and character) and not like a semi-accurate portrayal of the Battle of the Atlantic like the film version of the Cruel Sea(next to impossible to find now) or Das Boot(not popular because it humanizes the 'bad guys'). As final note I find it amusing that the U-Boat blows up and no one makes any effort to see if there was anyone to rescue which was quite a historical given the numbers of U-boat survivors picked up by Allied escorts. Then again, what can you expect from a soulless display of sound and fury like this movie?

    • @ToddSauve
      @ToddSauve 3 года назад +1

      @@nicholasotto2822 The source I provided for the fight between HMCS Assiniboine and 210 is the best that exists and includes pictures taken during and after the fight. These things DID happen, so I don't see what your point is either. So what if it was rare. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be portrayed in the movie. At this point in WW2, early to mid 1942, the German navy had changed from a 3 to 4 rotor Enigma machine that the Allies couldn't crack. Perhaps they fought it out because they were concerned that an invaluable 4 rotor Enigma would fall into their hands, as a 3 rotor version had fallen into the hands of HMS Bulldog. In any event, Google HMCS Assiniboine and follow the link to the Juno Beach museum where all the reports and pictures are online. Quite an episode on the high seas!
      By the way, the Assiniboine picked up almost 40 survivors from U210 so perhaps one of them left an account giving the reason the captain of the Uboat decided to fight. Some were fanatical Nazis and were quite happy to die for the Fuhrer.
      And one more thing. One of the photos from the fight shows a round from the Uboat deck cannon that went right through the Assiniboine's wheelhouse and out the other side! There is a big hole and outward facing splayed metal from the exit hole. During the movie HMCS Dodge (Dickie) reports that they had taken a round right through their ship as well that had failed to explode. What a miracle, and I'm sure that is where the film's writers took that incident from. The HMCS Assiniboine had to return to St. John's, Newfoundland right away to get repairs from the battle.

    I think these U-boot's in the movie are shown on the surface, to add color to the fight in each scene. U-boot commander never tried fight with warships, destroyers or corvettes in surface. It would be suicide! No one tried engage atack warships via deck machinegun or cannon. U-boot was poorly armored even against machine gun fire. They goes to surface, when U-boot was critical damaged via bomb atack. Usually they hid under water for avoid dectected. There have been U-boot attacks on destroyers, but only under water and hit destroyer by torpedo was a big challenge for crew. Torpedoes passed under the hull due to the smaller fording depth of the ship in water or missed! Destroyer was fast and maneuverability. And for last. Wolfpack atacked convoy always in night! That was Dönitz tactic. But i understand, it just movie and only cinematic perspective.

Another famous example happened in the pacific where a Japanese submarine got so close the American destroyer crew resorted to throwing potatoes at the enemy submarine.

    I was privileged to know a man, who as a young merchant marine was at pearl harbor on the day of infamy. He joined up with the navy, then the army, branched out to the air force while serving in WW2, Korea, and Vietnam.He retired on a military base a civilian engineer.
    One of his daughters, a schoolmate, married the base Provost Marshall

      I've seen Das Boot in the movie theater in the early Eighties.. Great screen and stereo surround sound. 👍

    Very spectacular, but extremely unrealistic. This is not the way U-boats operated.

    I'm kinda amazed Tom Hanks would agree to such a historically important movie that only a few would be able to see it. My cable bill is already over 300 dollars but I'm supposed to "subscribe" to yet another service to see such an important WW2 movie ?? Greed knows no bounds.

      Не было выхода.Загнали! Если глубина маленькая,то и рискнуть спастись запредельной глубиной погружения не было возможности. Вот и решили принять бой. А грамотно встали бортом ко второму эсминцу.

      Да на американских кораблях канониры видать только что увидели орудие. С такого расстояния попасть не могут. А подводная лодка видать сделана из бронелистов.
