This unique volume in the U-boat Aces series features the three
German naval captains-Karl-Heinz Moehle, Reinhard Hardegen, and
Horst von Schroeter-who commanded the U-123, a type IXB U-boat. In
12 patrols and 720 days at sea during its four-year WWII combat
career, U-123 sank an incredible 44 Allied merchant and warships,
ranking it with the third-most U-boat sinkings. Moehle, the first
commander of U-123, successfully conducted three patrols in the
North Atlantic and was awarded the Knight's Cross. Hardegen sank
the first ship in US waters and was eventually awarded the Oak
Leaves to his Knight's Cross. Schroeter, appointed U-123's
commander in June 1942, also received the Knight's Cross after four
combat patrols. All 12 of U-123's combat patrols are discussed in
detail, as well as its participation in the wartime propaganda film
U-boats Westward! The featured rare photography comes from the
German U-boat Archive in Cuxhaven, as well as from former crew
members.
