Content: Because they could move more quickly and travel farther using diesel engines above water than employing electric batteries when submerged, U-boats patrolled on the surface when they could.
Content: Picture caption: "Die deutsche Kriegsmarine hatte sich durch die Herbststürme nicht abschrecken lassen. Sie ließ sich auch durch die winterliche Kälte nicht behindern. Schwer vereist kehrten die U-Boote von ihren Feindfahrten zurück."
