Das Boot is 'wicked good' as they used to say in Mass, but Jan you have to appreciate America ! Hollywood is our propaganda machine and propaganda always distorts the truth ! U-571 is the quintessential American U boat movie-- after all Civil Air Patrol United States Air Force Auxiliary sank two (2) U Boats and those combat reports read just like U-571's screen play. Fake Hollywood propaganda. Of course, so far the U.S. has always backed up it's propaganda with a balanced submarine, surface, land, and air force.
I think Das Boot is the best submarine movie ever made.
