A very interesting book, based on a diary of a U-Boat telegraphist who served principally on the U-109, before serving on a somewhat mysterious voyage on another submarine in the spring of 1945. The author appears to have been born under a lucky star, in that because of assorted mishaps, he managed to avoid being on a number of vessels that were later sunk.
