Vow 5. A boat 977, by Heinz Schaefler w. W. Norton & co., inc., cover. Price $3.50 is Price s2.70. What did the Battle of. The Atlantic look like " through  Periscope of a nazi submarine. Heinz Schaefter native Berliner who studied briefly at a Cleve land Ohio High school shortly before world War ii tells his experiences in the first such Book written by a former a Bont com Mander. His account covers four years of prowling the Atlantic stalking and sinking Allied ships from the North sea to the Cape of Goodhope and burrowing into the dark Depths of the sea.

Schaefter s distress at lengthy interrogation on this Point by Allied authorities appears to Stem. From disappointment that the Hitler escape Story Over shadowed his claim of having travelled submerged for a stretch of 66 Days and nights in route to Argentina a feat he hints should have gained him acclaim v i never had the slightest i h Terest in politics seems to be Schaeffer s Way of say Irig he was never a nazi a Standard Dis claimer for such books.
