Diesel Engine Start
Posted by: von Schoenvorts ()

In the movie U 571 (and I know how it is reviewed) the USN crew start a diesel engine after the U-boat's batteries are totally depleted. If it were the case could a German WW II submarine start a diesel with no electrical power available? Take care.
