U-48 U-552 U-995
U-48 was the most successful submarine of any navy in World War II under three Skippers, each of whom won at least the Knights Cross. This is known as "Dreimal Schwartzer Kater" or Three Tomcats.
U-552 under Sharkhunters Member Erich Topp had a dancing red devil as its tower emblem. He was the third most successful combat submarine Skipper of World War II and was decorated with the Knights Cross, Oak Leaf and Crossed Swords. Only five U-Bootfahrer received this high honor.
At barely 21 years of age, Hans-Georg Hess became the youngest combat submarine Skipper of any navy in World War II and possibly of all time. He was decorated with the Knights Cross after five successful war patrols. Hess told his crew that they could decide on an emblem but they could not use anything to do with the war, with weapons or with ancient heraldry. The "Fang den Hut" emblem is from a children's game of the same name, meaning "catch the hat". Hess has been a Member of Sharkhunters since 1985 and serves on our Board.
