| 説明 | The body of water at the Pelican's beak was known as the Valley of Death among U-boat men from 1943 onwards. At that time the RAF had gained total air supremacy all over the bay and was sinking U-boats only few hours from their bunkers. The failure of the Luftwaffe to protect the area is baffling. Pelicans were much fatter when feasting in these waters 41 years ago.This map shows 65 U-boats lost at sea, a significant portion of the overall losses. Here the Flak-boats were experimented with in an attempt to fend of the allied aircraft. One of the means to combat the ever-present aircraft in this area was the Piening-Route of 1943. |
