<HTML>Hello Jay,
I\'m just re-reading Herbert A. Werner\'s \'Die Eisernen Saerge\' (Iron Coffins); on page 27 of the German paperback edition of 1976 he says that, among other things at Naval School, \"we also broadened our knowledge of English\" (\'Wir verbesserten auch unsere englischen Sprachkenntnisse\'). He\'s talking about a school that all future officers of the Kriegsmarine had to go through, not just U-Boat personnel.
So this seems to go with what other people have found out here on the forum. i hope it helps, anyway.
Cheers, Johannes
