Re: Karl Pfaff U-234
Drooling with envy!! Merry Christmas!
[COLOR="#EE82EE"]I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I'm out of control, and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.

Re: Karl Pfaff U-234
Nice Christmas gift! Great signature to have. And I believe Hein Fehler was the commander of U-234. And a former officer of the Atlantis.

Re: Karl Pfaff U-234
I believe you're correct, Luke. Looks like he passed in Memphis.

Re: Karl Pfaff U-234
Yes....he recently passed away....he was 88. A few months ago Mr. Pfaff and his daughter visited the clinic in Memphis where my brother works. My bro noticed a German accent and taking his age into account asked her if he was involved in the war. His daughter emphatically said "OH YES!" and preceeded to say a little about his involvement. Mr. Pfaff did not say much, as he was suffering from Alzheimer's, but said that the WW2 episode was such a small part of his entire life. Anyway my bro asked him to sign the photo just a few weeks prior to his death. The "small part" of his life is nontheless truly fascinating.

Surrender of the U 234
I am a ww II US Navy veteran. Stationed at the Ordnance Investigation Laboratory, I was a Bomb Disposalman who was invoved, hands on, in the surrender of the U 234. My partner and I were responsible for rendering safe the five booby trapped cargo tanks removed from three submarines. The true story was corrupted and fictionalized for obvious reasons. I will forward my documentation to anyone interested.

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
