Gerd Thäter Interview - 2000
Tape H-72

We went back to Germany in 2000 and shot more interviews with yet more veterans of the U-boat wars.  Gerd Thäter was the Skipper of U-466 and also of U-3506, and he also was one of a handful to make the journey through the Gates of Hell (Gibraltar) twice!  He was a good Skipper and well liked by his crew, and he was awarded the Deutsches Kreuz in Gold (German Cross in Gold) for bravery.

His Type XXI boat (U-3506) is still entombed in the ‘Lost Bunker’ in Hamburg.
