Descripton: The history of the five famous U-boat bases of the Atlantic coast: Brest, Lorient, Saint-Nazaire, La Pallice, Bordeaux; the arrival of the Kriegsmarine in those places; the Allied bombings and attacks (the English raid on Saint-Nazaire in 1942); the capitulation of Festung Lorient and Festung Gironde. Note that the French revue "Marines" printed several very well documented issues on the campaigns of the Battle of the Atlantic.
