U-234 mention in the paper
"Gordon" wrote in message ... Article goes on to explain how well Marienfeld was brainwashed by the Nazis, giving good examples of his warped outlook on the war. I thought it was strange that even the AP knew that the U-234 was bound for Japan, the day after it was captured. Hardly that strange, it surrendered to the USS Sutton on 14 May and since the submarine had contacted the allies on 10th May when ordered to surrender and had made known her intentions it can scarcely have been a surprise. As for the cargo it was carrying around 500kg of natural Uranium Oxide, nothing like enough to build a reactor but which in the absence of tungsten or chrome was a useful additive for hardening steel.
