TV program on U-boats in the Gulf of Mexico raises a question. Would
the Germans have had enough u-boats capable of reaching the Gulf of

ships were sunk in 1942, not all tankers. Would a full force of
multiple wolf packs up and down the Gulf coast have been able to shut
off the supply of oil going to Great Britain? |
