Knights Cross with Oak Leaf and Crossed Swords
Images of Otto Kretschmer and Erich Topp, two of the five U-Boat Skippers
who were awarded this high decoration in World War II.
Youngest Skipper
Just a few months past his 21st birthday, Oberleutnant z.S. d.R. Hans-Georg
Hess was given command of U-995 and became the youngest
combat submarine Skipper of any navy in World War II and possibly of all
time.
Squadron of Experts
Luftwaffe Major Hans-Ekkehard Bob flew with many outfits in the Luftwaffe,
but he was one of the Squadron of Experts who flew the Me 262
jet fighter.
the Drumbeater is Home
With the opening of Operation Drumbeat along the
American East Coast, Captain Reinhard Hardegen was on station first and
so became known as the Drumbeater. This print depicts his safe return
to his homeport.
Ready for Sea
Kapitänleutnant Gerd Thäter brought his U-466 safely through
the 'Gates of Hell' as the Straits of Gibraltar were known.
USS TIRANTE (SS 420)
This American submarine, under Captain Street and XO Ned Beach, had a
field day in a Japanese held Korean harbor. This print shows it
clearly.
USS BARB (SS 220)
The only time American troops ever stepped foot on the Japanese Home Islands
during World War II was when a group of men from USS BARB
planted explosives at a railroad trestle to blow up a troop train.
Farewell to 'ALI'
SHARKHUNTERS commissioned this print when Peter-Erich Cremer, known
as 'ALI', began his Eternal Patrol.
U-99 vs. British Armed Merchant Cruisers
On the night of 3/4 November 1940, Otto Kretschmer was out of torpedoes
and so had a running gun battle with the two British armed merchant cruisers
LAURENTIC (18,724 tons) and PATROCLEUS (11,314
tons). This is a magnificent print!
Almost Home This
is the most impressive World War II Fine Art Print ever offered!
It is hand signed by 14 well-known veterans of World War II.
This group includes three winners of the Knights Cross with
Oak Leaf and Crossed Swords; five other Skippers
who earned the Knights Cross; as well as others who made
their mark in the Battle of the Atlantic.
Convoy in Sight
Hand-Signed by 18 veterans of the War at Sea including 15 Skippers and
8 Knights Cross holders (one with the Oak Leaf and
Swords).
Thäter und Hess Hand-signed
by both Captains Gerd Thäter and Hans-Georg Hess.....two friends who rode
U-466 together as Skipper and I.W.O. Hess is a Knights
Cross holder. Great piece for the beginning collector.
"Yesterday's Enemies"
Hand-signed by six of the most influential and successful submarine commanders
of World War II.....three German U-Boat Skippers; three American submarine
Skippers - all with intense combat experience and all highly decorated
including the most highly decorated American submariner ever in history.
