Hi all
whilst doing some research for my up and coming book. I came across an interesting article/ speech that was given by Winston Churchill to the House of Commons on September 26 1939. It was a rather lengthy speech and I have the full transcript if anyone is interested? However here is one of the interesting parts?
Titled:- Hard and Bitter U-boat War.
\'Now I must speak about the character of this warfare. From time to time the German U-boat commanders have tried their best to behave with humanity.
We have seen them give good warning and also endeavour to help the crews to find their way to port.\'
\' One German captain signalled to me personally the position in which the British ship was sunk, and urged that rescue should be sent. He signed his message
\"German submarine.\"
\'I was in doubt at the time to what address I should direct my reply. However he is now in our hands, and is treated with all consideration.\"
Winston Churchill, September 26th 1939.-House of Commons.
Is their anyone who knows who the submarine commander was? The U-boat involved? and what ship was sunk?
I am not betting on this one as I am sure their is someone out their who knows this one?
Regards Terry Andrews.
