Comments on: German Submarine U-505 Crewmember Hans Goebeler Recalls Being Captured During World War II http://www.historynet.com/german-submarine-u-505-crewmember-hans-goebeler-recalls-being-captured-during-world-war-ii.htm From the World's Largest History Magazine Publisher Sat, 25 May 2013 19:37:15 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Marcy http://www.historynet.com/german-submarine-u-505-crewmember-hans-goebeler-recalls-being-captured-during-world-war-ii.htm#comment-938597 Marcy Mon, 11 Mar 2013 15:05:14 +0000 #comment-938597 History states that the Pillsbury had the boarding crew but if you read this report you will see another side to the story. Gallery later in years stated this was true but nothing has been done to change history. :-( http://u505denardo.com/public_html/U-505.html If you look at the pictures you will see Frank coming out of the water - something you will never see on another page since it's the real story the Navy didn't want published. Sadly, Frank has passed away. :-( History states that the Pillsbury had the boarding crew but if you read this report you will see another side to the story.

I wonder if there is any truth to this story.

He said that the young men that were taken aboard his ship were well treated and all shook hands when delivered ashore. He said they were just young kids like us that got thrown into this war. My dad passed away two years ago, sure wish I had seen these accounts online sooner. Remebering my dad this Memorial Day--John R. Gusler FN 1944-1954.

When I learned of his capture of U-505, my admiration increased. Part of the reason for the admiration is that he was ordered to sink U-505 after retrieving the code books and Enigma machine. With a fine sense of history, he refused. I have long admired Admiral Gallery for his books and sense of humor. When I learned of his capture of U-505, my admiration increased.

It took a lot of good timing and good luck. Adm Gallery's books were always well written and the type you could not put down.
