German Documents found after scuttling of U-49?
Posted by: Wylye ()

I have found the following single online source stating that after the U-49 was forced to the surface by depth charges and scuttled during the Norwegian campaign on 15 April 1940 that the Allies were able to recover documents with the dispositions, codes and operational orders of all U-boats in the Norwegian operational area.

Do any of sources support this claim?
