Type II U-boat brief - #8

READ THIS DESCRIPTION!

Briefing on the German Type II coastal U-boat in WW2

ERRATA

In the briefing I indicate that the Type II U-boat carried six torpedoes (three in tubes and three reloads). The reference books indicate a total of five torpedoes were carried. I put six in the briefing because I came across a remark made by Wolfgang Luth who indicated they carried six on the Type IIs. He made multiple combat patrols in them so I figured he'd know. Unfortunately, I can't find the reference with that remark by Luth. So to be on the historically correct side - they carried five torpedoes total.
