It has been pointed out to me elsewhere , that there is no mention of Willi Wilke having served on U-108 ...according to Ubootwaffe.net crew list .
and the only Willi Wilke mentioned died on U-655...24th March 1942.
I really need some help from someone with indepth knowledge .
The album to me clearly suggests Willie Wilke served on U-108 .
If it was Willi Wilkes album then there is an inconsistancy because there are photos of Norwegian tanker sinking on may 1942 .
Can anyone confirm for me that Wilke did serve on U-108 ..
Does anyone know how definative are the crew lists on ubootwaffe.net ?
Also how common a surname is Wilke in Germany ...is it perfectly possible that there were 2 Willi Wilke surving in U-boats during WW2 ?
many thanks
