The hunt is over. Black May (May 1943) marks the U-boat campaign's devastating turning point, forcing Admiral Dönitz to withdraw his "Grey Wolves" from the North Atlantic.
In the final episode Saul and Roger track the U-boats' demise against overwhelming Allied technological advances.
We explore the grim reality for U-boat crews—the brutal conditions and a staggering 75% casualty rate—and why advanced subs like the Type XXI "Elektroboote" arrived too late.
We conclude the series by assessing the final collapse, Operation Deadlight, and the campaign's immense human cost.
