Horst von Schroeter
Interview - 2000
Tape H-76
We went back to
Germany in 2000 and shot more interviews with veterans of the U-boat wars.
Leutnant zur See
Horst von
Schroeter was II.W.O. of U-123 under Hardegen and after the two
American patrols, he took over command of the boat.
A highly competent Skipper, von Schroeter earned the Knights
Cross. He shipped
aboard again when the new German Navy was born in the middle 1950’s, and
ultimately retired with the rank of Vize Admiral.
This is the highest rank attained by any of the WW II U-bootfahrer in the
post-war Bundsmarine.
