That quarter century has passed, and we are now able to open them for all to learn. In this, our sixth volume, you will read about many previously unknown secret activities, but the most important - the plans made in 1943 to evacuate Adolf Hitler, as the hierarchy of the 3rd Reich were, by mid-1943, fully aware that Germany would lose the war. We report more on the post war "Black Boats", German Navy bases still operating well after the end of the war and much more from secret files. We also report on how much money went to banks in Argentina and how it was transferred there. These files have been compiled by actual agents and spies, and released specifically to Sharkhunters.

In books like this, we attempt to reveal the real truths behind the propaganda we have been taught over the decades. So much of the published history is incorrect or blatantly false, either by error or by design. In the volumes of this book, we rip away the curtain of false information and reveal true history, direct from those who were there. We promised our sources that we would keep these files and stories locked up for 25 years. That time has passed and we now open the books for all.

Private snapshots taken by German soldiers as the went through training then deployment into Norway. Photos of the family back in Germany; photos of the scenery as they moved forward, scenes of battle and scenes of funeral processions. These photos are all shot by foot soldiers in the war.

Germany was destroyed, devastated, broken and helpless under the victorious Allied powers after World War One. The ill-conceived Treaty of Versailles had a boot on the German throat. They were allowed a small defensive military not to exceed 100,000 troops and no more than 800 officers. Above all, Germany was not permitted any U-Boats of any kind. How was it then, that as early as 1936 when German U-Boats first went into combat, that they had the most advanced submarines at sea? Further, when World War Two began on 1 September 1939, they had even more units and more advanced submarines than any other navy? While it is true that the U-Bootwaffe had far too few U-Boats on 1 Sept. 1939, they had the most advanced submarines of the time. This book explains the secret planning of the new U-Bootwaffe, the mid-war changes anticipated and requested by Karl Dönitz and it gives his analysis in 1946 why the war went like it did.

Photo history of the First Greater Germany Military Gathering in Kassel 1939. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers, sailors and airmen came from all over the Reich for this first celebration.

This is the continuation of our series of the U-Boat War in Photos with many photos of the U-Boats, the Skippers, their victims, the hunters and every kind of photo we could find to the give the reader the most thorough, most comprehensive look into the history of the German U-Bootwaffe of the Kriegsmarine. As we have reported in our previous book (Volume I) of this series, as well as, our other books on the U-Bootwaffe (U-Boat! Volumes 1-10, so far) there is a tremendous tribute to the U-Bootfahrer to their honor and chivalry in battle. We have been incredibly fortunate over the three and a half decades since we founded Sharkhunters, that we have met and become close friends with so many of the Skippers, officers, and crewmen. It would be impossible to list them all, but I had a sleeping room in the house of Otto Kretschmer, visited so many times with Erich Topp, Reinhard Hardegen, Horst von Schroeter, Rolf Thomsen, and my best friend in Germany, Hans-Georg Hess. They freely and unselfishly gave us their memories and history of the U-Boat War and in turn, we gave our word to tell their history honestly and without false wartime propaganda.

Histories of the U-Boats types that were not manufactured in large numbers; including Skipper's names, conning tower emblems, photos and data not available anywhere else.

"Hitler and the Secret Alliance is a fantastic journey into the past and, to an extent, the present of the southern half of the Western Hemisphere. Almost everyone has been exposed to some aspects of World War I and II Germany and probably to a lesser extent, South America. However, only a few have delved deeply into the history of southern South America. Readers having an interest in and/or working knowledge of this area of world history from current sources will be amazed how this book puts incidents in perspective and makes the gaps in this history suddenly apparent. For example, the presence of German nationals and representatives of the German government in South America has always been more or less obvious to the public. The extent of this presence in terms of land ownership, businesses and manufacturing enterprises and the influence on countries such as Argentina as illustrated in this book will amaze even the knowledgeable reader.

In this book, "U-Boat!" (Vol. XII) there are more memories from the men of the U-Bootwaffe including U-995, the only Type VII-C left in the world and one of the most disastrous convoy battles of the war. We also cover Italian submarines Italian charioteers and other sea battles. We also reveal much more of the intrigue that led up to the betrayal at Pearl Harbor and have glimpses of the 3rd Reich in South America.

Here is the Otto Kretschmer you never knew; Riding the Wild Goose; Americans aboard a German U-Boat; Insights into various U-Boat crewman; Greatest Patrol of USS BARB; Submarines Rescue POWs; Sailboat or Submarine? and more U-Boat history directly from the men who lived it. These are all memories of the men who fought the war sea; first person history.

This book tells the story of many of the 3rd Reich who escaped to live out their lives in safety and comfort in South America - primarily in Argentina.

The Norway Action - April 1940 Photographic Images of History.....a time of struggle, of honor and of the loss of an entire generation of young men, the end of a nation and the destruction of an entire continent. Naturally, this time was not all struggle, fighting and combat but in this volume, we see the photographic record of this pivotal action from the Heer (the German Army), the Kriegsmarine (the German Navy) and the Luftwaffe (the German Air Force). These photographs are a composite of the photo albums of German soldiers in each of these branches. As with young men in their country's military, especially in dangerous times of combat, struggle & death - they relaxed in many ways, many took photos. The photos were not only of their brothers in arms and the images of their life on the Front but also the photos they carried of loved ones at home. Join us in this photographic trip back in time that was difficult for the entire world; a time when life was today because tomorrow was never guaranteed.

The United States was caught completely off guard on Sunday, December 7th when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor - or were they?

We also read input about the German scientist who created the triggers for American's nuclear bombs - he was a Sharkhunters Member. You will read about Americans aboard U-2513; rockets aboard U-Boats; U-81 vs. SS CLAN McARTHUR; the Italian "Charioteers" and much more.

Who said that Hitler did not die in the bunker in April 1945? Josef Stalin told President Harry Truman that Hitler did not. Marshall Zhukov said "We have found no corpse that could be Hitler's."

You will also read the reason that no government went after Hitler even though they knew where he was. This book will change the history you were taught in 5th grade.
