Description:
(Subject: Naval & Maritime: Ships, Submarines & Other Vessels - General) U-552 was one of the legendary U-boats of the Second World War. Under its commander Erich Topp, it carried out a total of ten operational patrols, sinking 30 ships and damaging three in a period of 20 months. In the days of the big convoy battles, when the Allies detection technology had not yet been perfected and convoys were weakly escorted, Topp was among the U-boat arms most successful commanders. Within 16 months he was decorated with the Knights Cross, the Oak Leaves and the Swords. U-552's Red Devil emblem, was probably photographed more than any other U-boat. Includes photos from all of the boats patrols, a war cruise chronology with detailed descriptions, together with color graphics and maps. German/English text. New from publisher, unread.
