<HTML>Hello Blanco,
Sure, agree with all you said. R\'s overeagerness was well known even beyond the uboat arm. A quick check on both their war time careers reveals that their paths really did not cross to any extend during the war (R- mostly in France, O- mostly in Norway)
So they would have had few occasions to clash professionally. I do not know what positions R occupied at the post war navy. But O. being junior in rang might have passed on R. as his possible immediate superior.
Still there must have been a personal contact acting as trigger to this animosity.
