Is Germany's Navy Dead?

Oh I guess your right, missed the part of all those PT boats run over by Japanese destroyers when they were on patrol.

ONLY if he’s asleep while on patrol.

Need to dig a bit deeper and check out the relationship of daddy Kennedy with navy brass. Plus the careers of those on his board of inquiry.

I will leave it with this quote;
Every hero has committed frauds; every institution has acted in a fashion contrary to its stated mission. Historical figures become symbols, and have meaning only as it is assigned to them by historians, cinematographers, and the press, and that meaning endures only until skilled revisionists assault it. The truth is too manifold for any mind to comprehend.

Perhaps, but I tend to think there are separate rules for common schlubs and for rich, Harvard boys of well connected Daddy. .

Also I am referring to how he got a couple of his crew dead and the rest in the water. Not what happened after they got their feet wet.

Strongly recommend you read This Ain’t Hell with a huge chunk of salt. I’m not saying they don’t post good stuff occasionally but it’s definitely the domain of angry middle aged veterans with an inferiority complex who see conspiracy everywhere and love to be outraged.
