When historians consider the bravest of the brave, I hope they will have access to your magnificent site. You do these brave men great honour in what you do and I feel sure that their spirits rest more peacefully for it.
Thank you

Heart felt thanks
All I can say is thank you. I'm rather speechless. You see, my grandfather was aboard the HMS Exmouth which was sunk in 1940 with all hands. It has been a life long quest of mine to find out what happened to his ship. Until a few months ago all I could find out was that it was presumed torpedoed in the Moray Firth. Today...just now, with the aid of the Web, I found a sight called Ship Losses Around Britain and learned that it was U-22 that sealed the fate of Exmouth. Your sight on U boats gave the whole ordeal closure for my family. Thank you so very much indeed for all of your hard work.

I visited your site today for the first time. I am very impressed the educational value of the site and how much information is presented. I have forwarded the address to some friends who are interested in war history. As an amateur U-boat enthusiast and I am glad this site is here for me.

Please continue your good work.

Being a member of the "Friends of the U-boat Archive," I find it very disappointing to find former U-boat seamen cannot get a formal military funeral in Germany. As this site so eloquently displays, these men were all valiant sailors and deserve the respect this website affords them, and more.

uboat.net pays a real tribute to men that served on these World War Two submarines. I was raised and ever since been living in Tangier, Morocco, North Africa. I have always been fascinated about the history of the U-boats and their men and in particular the trips they made through the straits of Gibraltar and close by around the coast of Tangier. My hat goes off to you and I also salute you for making this web site a fascinating site that takes you back in time and history. You have got me completely hooked!!.
Thank you
