Grand Admiral Karl Doenitz,
1942
Our leaders have learned nothing from the first world war. We have plunged into a world conflict without adequate submarines and failed to expand the U-boat arm, because the leaders and their army and air force advisers believe that they can win a war on land when our main opponents are the two greatest sea powers in the world! We direly need technological improvement and more U-boats! Now that the US is in the picture, we are going up against a monolithic economy. Let's hope we can continue making gains, and hope the leaders honestly wake up to these concerns before it's too late.
