This black & white film tells the story of how the United States Navy captured a German U-boat on the high seas. The Allies learned from decrypted German messages that U-boats were operating near Cape Verde and the Navy dispatched Task Group 22.3 to the area, a "Hunter-Killer" group commanded by Captain Daniel V. Gallery and Commander Frederick S. Hall. The events shown in the film started on 4 June 1944, when the group intercepted and captured the German Type IXC submarine U-505. This was the first time that the U.S. Navy captured an enemy vessel at sea since the 19th century. What is not explained in the film, and remained classified for many years after the war, is that vital German code books and a naval Enigma code machine were seized during the incident.

She was captured on 4 June 1944 by United States Navy Task Group 22.3, one of six U-boats that were captured by Allied forces during World War II. All but one of U-505's crew were rescued by the Navy task group. The submarine was towed to Bermuda in secret and her crew were interned at a POW camp, where they were denied access to International Red Cross visits. The Navy classified the capture as top secret and prevented the Germans from discovering it. In 1954, U-505 was donated to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, Illinois.<p><p>We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!
