Thanks Woody and JT,
The only book I have on the subject, "GERMAN U-BOAT TYPE XXI" by Siegfried Breyer, (many excellent photographs by the way) does not mention A/C or the freezer.

On this site (uboat.net) it does mention the freezer at [www.uboat.net]

Somewhere, and for the life of me I can't remember where, (TV doc., web site or book) I saw the claim that the XXI was the first submarine with refrigerated air conditioning. This of course, may or may not be true. But if it is, it would seem to make sense that the freezer would utilize the same compressor and heat exchanger assembly as the A/C.

If anyone knows anything more about the freezer, it would be appreciated.
Thanks again Woody and JT.
