Als U-Boots-Kommandant gegen England by Freiherr von Georg-Günther Forstner
"Als U-Boots-Kommandant gegen England" by Freiherr von Georg-Günther Forstner is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the experiences of a German U-boat commander during World War I, focusing on the strategies, operations, and challenges faced by the crew while engaging in underwater warfare against England. It provides insights into the workings of U-boats and the life aboard, showcasing a unique perspective on a pivotal aspect
of naval warfare. The opening of the narrative introduces the commander’s transition to the U-boat force within the Imperial Navy and paints a vivid picture of the sense of pride and apprehension he experiences. He reflects on the significance of being assigned to a newly developed weapon—the submarine—and shares anecdotes about life in the marine, including details of the training and expectations that come with this role. There is a blend of anticipation and trepidation as he prepares to navigate the uncharted waters of submarine warfare, setting the stage for the subsequent challenges and operations against the Allied forces.
