Hi
You list Hetschko as U-89+ Cdr.
Busch and Röll list hims as Cdr sea trg
From this I understand that he was on commander training under Dietrich Lohmann who was the commander of U-89.
Why did he have to go on training? Apparently not a very sucessful commander who perhaps did a major screw-up on his first command? He commanded his first boat U-453, a type VIIC for only a month, and his second command was U-121, a type IIB, and then onto commander training again.
It seems like his career was a bit in the reverse?
Cheers
