“The only thing that ever really frightened me during the war was the U-boat peril.” -Winston Churchill



In 1939, the first opening salvos of the war in the Atlantic Ocean were launched. Merchant ships were under constant threat from the German U-boats. The war in the Atlantic against the U-boats was always a game of chess. Both sides were constantly trading pieces, developing new strategies, and implementing new technologies.



“Hunting the Iron Wolf” tells the story of the thrilling capture of three German U-boats by the Allies: U-110, U-570, and U-505.
