Historical Note
The Battle of the Atlantic (1939–1945) was the longest continuous military campaign of the Second World War. German U-boats (Unterseeboote) sought to sever Allied supply lines across the Atlantic through coordinated “wolf pack” (Rudeltaktik) attacks. This documentary provides an overview of the campaign using period film footage and historical commentary, making it an excellent companion reference for collectors interested in Kriegsmarine history.
