People forget that the RN had subs in 1940, too. *If the Kriegsmarine
had tried an invasion they would have been as subject to attack as the

In the presence of U-Boote how would British subs communicate that
they were friendly to attacking British destroyers? Many ships fired
at friendly aircraft that they could clearly see but not properly
identify.
