<HTML>I don\'t discount anyone\'s intelligence or experience. However, anyone that expresses themselves rudely and anonymously to me is, in my and most peoples opinion, a coward. In fact, the only point I have tried to make is that anti-sub warfare was far more advanced in \'45 than a lot of folks realize, and that in fact the German U-Boat service had the highest attrition rate of any branch of their military. That is indisputable fact. The United States literally engorged men, food, fuel, equipment and anything else to Britain and our allies. We did not lose ONE troop ship, not one.

Hi JD,
Would you care to take another try addressing points and questions in my last post to you?
Your experience in ordnance during the last couple decades does not disqualify you from commenting here, but is not neccessarily germain to the way ASW was conducted from the cockpit of an Avenger prior to landing again on his jeep-carrier in WW2. Yes, MAD was in it\\\'s infantcy then.
We appreciate the benefit of your experiences, but please don\\\'t assume, that ALL of us here at this forum just crawled out from under a rock. (Some, we meet here, might have :-)) There are some serious researchers here and, yes, there is also quite a bit of relevant experience represented here as well. Rgds, RB</HTML>
