Summary

Osprey's study of the U-Boat and its crews during World War I （1914-1918） and World War II （1939-1945）。 If one single weapon in Germany's arsenal can be said to have come closest to winning the war for the Third Reich， it was without doubt the U-Boat。 German U-Boat technology， training， tactics and combat successes far exceeded those of any of the other combatant nations， and even as the Third Reich was crumbling， technically advanced vessels such as the Type XXI， many years ahead of its time， were being put into volume production。 Gordon Williamson provides a fascinating overview of the achievements of the U-Boat Waffe in both wars， together with a study of the uniforms and insignia worn by U-Boat crews。

Dimitri ，

The continuity between the kaiserliche- and Kriegsmarine makes this uniform study double useful; there's just enough info on the use of all the buttons and braids to give an impression of the cramped practicality aboard。 This is one of those Ospreys that need a Warrior counterpart* to discuss training and tactics， but it will cause a few knowledgable nods the next time you watch Das Boot。*Osprey Warrior #36 : "Grey Wolf: U-Boat Crewman of World War II" by the same author The continuity between the kaiserliche- and Kriegsmarine makes this uniform study double useful; there's just enough info on the use of all the buttons and braids to give an impression of the cramped practicality aboard。 This is one of those Ospreys that need a Warrior counterpart* to discuss training and tactics， but it will cause a few knowledgable nods the next time you watch Das Boot。*Osprey Warrior #36 : "Grey Wolf: U-Boat Crewman of World War II" by the same author 。。。more
