The failure of the Norwegian Pinball wizards who "inspected" the Altmark is a stain on Norway for ever, they had to be Nazi sympathisers. There own brothers, fathers, sons were serving as Merchant seaman and they refused to heed the cries of the prisoners,.It is impossible to hide 300 bottles of beer from the Customs officers never mind 399 prisoners. I image they declared the cargo of Texas crude.

The ONI "Post Mortems on Enemy Submarines" are a wonderful reading. You can appreciate the volume of the knowledge that they have gained from interrogations and many other sources no doubt including Jacques Stosskopf. All the details of of the submarine from first laydown to sinking, All the senior officers complete careers. The Politics of the U Boat service. The operations of the vessel and equipment. The Bases. The Pubs Inns and other establishments frequented by the crews. The gathering and understanding of the U boats was a great help in defeating them.
