Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe U-20 set was the original U-96 set used in Das Boot (1981). The Type U-19 of World War I and Type VIIC of World War II had similar internal dimensions.
- GoofsOn at least two occasions the captain of the U 20 gives the order to "blow ballast" when he wants to dive the submarine. This order would result in all water being blown out of the ballast tanks and should only be given to surface the boat. In order to dive a submarine one must flood the ballast tanks with water.
- Quotes
Captain Turner: They're not interested in the truth.
- Crazy creditsAdrian Topol's character name is pronounced Voegele in the German dialogue and is spelled this way in the accompanying English subtitles. However in the credits it is spelled Vogele. Correct German spelling uses either "ö" (o with an umlaut) or else "oe".

- that their embargo of Germany was the first and bigger war crime;
- that Churchill wanted the Lusitania sunk, and in typically murderous fashioned schemed to make it happen;
- that the explosion of illegally carried war materials, especially gun cotton, caused the second and greater explosion;
- that the Admiralty first covered up and then destroyed all materials relating to the incident;
And much more. Anybody who argues anything else has not studied the subject in depth; one need only consult THE authority on the subject, Patrick Beesley, in his authoritative Room 40 to know this. None of this is "politics": it's all facts.
