Battle Stations 43-08-05 (1) The Battle of the Atlantic

The podcast episode provides a detailed overview of the Battle of the Atlantic from June 1941 to December 1941, highlighting the struggle between the Allies and German U-boats, as well as the growing involvement of the United States. This period, though marked by some Allied progress, still saw heavy losses as Germany sought to knock Britain out of the war. German Strategy and Wolf Pack Tactics: Germany, heavily engaged on the Eastern Front, still prioritized defeating Britain by targeting its supply lines. Admiral Karl Dönitz intensified U-boat attacks, employing wolf pack tactics, where multiple U-boats coordinated nighttime attacks on Allied convoys. Escorts, when diverted to one U-boat, left the convoys vulnerable to others. Allied Challenges: The Allies struggled with the mid-Atlantic gap, a vast area beyond the range of aircraft, where U-boats operated with relative impunity. Despite improved convoy protection by the Royal Navy and Royal Canadian Navy, the Allies suffered significant shipping losses. Significant Engagements: Convoy HX 112 (June 1941): Heavy Allied losses, but the British managed to sink U-100 and U-99, capturing high-ranking German commanders. Convoy SC 42 (September 1941): German U-boats sank 16 of 65 ships, but escorts destroyed 2 U-boats. Convoy HG 73 (September 1941): 10 Allied ships were sunk, but 1 U-boat was destroyed. Losses: Germans sank 433 Allied merchant ships (approximately 2.1 million tons of shipping) during this period. The Allies sank 24 U-boats, reflecting improved tactics and experience in anti-submarine warfare, but the Germans remained dominant. U.S. Involvement and the Atlantic Charter: Atlantic Charter (August 1941): U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill outlined eight principles for a post-war world, emphasizing freedom, self-determination, economic cooperation, and disarmament. While not a formal alliance, it signaled U.S. support for Britain. American warships began escorting convoys and providing material aid, including the Consolidated B-24 Liberator bombers. These long-range bombers helped close the mid-Atlantic gap by targeting U-boats with radar and depth charges. The Balance of Power: Despite Allied advancements in anti-U-boat warfare and U.S. support, the Germans were still winning the Battle of the Atlantic, inflicting severe losses on Allied shipping by the time the U.S. entered the war after Pearl Harbor. The episode concludes with the Allies making slow progress but facing significant challenges as German U-boats continued to dominate the Atlantic.

Dr. Stephen Phillips interviews author Charles Lachman to discuss his book, Codename Nemo: The Hunt for a Nazi U-Boat and the Elusive Enigma Machine, which tells the story of the U.S. Navy's capture of the German U-boat, U-505 on June 4, 1944.

As the Second World War raged on, Atlantic sea-routes became a crucial lifeline for Britain as merchant ships kept them supplied with critical equipment and food. But this made them an irresistible target for German attack. Speaking to Rachel Dinning for our WW2's Greatest Battles series, military historian James Holland explains why he believes the battle of the Atlantic was the most important engagement of the whole conflict, and reveals what life was really like inside a German U-boat.

The navy Germany had at the outbreak of the Second World War was only a small fraction of what the Allies had arrayed against it. But the Fall of France and the entry of Italy into the war changed things dramatically and created opportunities at sea that Germany had never had in the last war.

Historian Ted Barris sat down with Erin to talk about his new book covering the longest WWII battle - the Battle of the Atlantic - and Canada's contributions to this critical battle that forged the foundation of the North Atlantic alliance we know today. Canadian heroism and perseverance as told in “Battle of the Atlantic: Gauntlet to Victory”.

In this first chapter of the Battle of the Atlantic, we catch up with what was happening in the Atlantic Ocean. Germany was trying to cut off Britain from all outside support by targeting shipping lanes. The Allies struggled to get the convoys to their destination from German ships, planes, and especially the dreaded U-Boats. This chapter takes us from the beginning of the war to late 1941.

The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and Germany's declaration of war on the United States opened a new and more deadly chapter in the War at Sea in the Second World War.

In part two of a discussion by Mark Grove and Dr Gary Blackburn with host Iain Ballantyne, the tasty and varied menu includes naval aspects of the Ukraine War and whether or not a new Battle of the Atlantic is shaping up as Russia seeks to win its so-called ‘special military operation' in Ukraine it has sought to establish stronger links with China, so this begs the question, which Iain puts out there: what does Moscow have to offer Beijing? Does the answer possibly lie in naval technology? After also touching on Russia reinforcing its submarine forces in the Pacific, the chat turns to the Ukraine War itself. Among the topics touched on are Moscow effort's to impose a distant blockade in the Black Sea and the use of drones, plus implications for the Royal Navy as it struggles to achieve critical mass in aerial capabilities. The discussion turns to the new contest in the Atlantic between Russia and the West. Bearing in mind this is the 80 th anniversary year of the Allies gaining a decisive upper hand in the WW2 struggle for that vast and strategically vital ocean, does naval history offer anything relevant to where we are now? Would convoys of merchant vessels need to make a comeback if the 21 st Century Atlantic contest turns hot? And, as a worthwhile digression, what about the importance of safeguarding seabed infrastructure - especially in the wake of the Nord Stream sabotage attack - and how to avoid dangerous escalation? The expert analysis and commentary of Mark and Gary on all the above subjects is well worth a listen. Also touched on in this episode is China seeking to exert sea control in oceans off its shores, via land-based ballistic missiles, but why? The conundrum of prioritising UK army or naval expenditure is mentioned, along with the folly of the UK's notorious 2010 Strategic Defence and Security Review. Mark Grove is a Senior Lecturer in Strategic Studies specialising in Maritime Strategy, Warfare, and Security at the University of Lincoln's Maritime Studies Centre at the Royal Naval College in Dartmouth, where he has taught for 24 years, originally working directly for the Ministry of Defence. Mark has written on amphibious warfare, the naval history of the Second World War, and the Falklands.

In this podcast episode, Larry Ostola talks to Ted Barris about his book The Battle of the Atlantic: Gauntlet of Victory published by HarperCollins in 2022. In Battle of the Atlantic, Ted Barris provides a well-researched account of Canada's longest continuous military engagement during the Second World War. The years 2019 to 2025 mark the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Atlantic - the war's most critical and dramatic battle of attrition. For five and a half years, German surface warships and submarines attempted to destroy Allied trans-Atlantic convoys, most of which were escorted by Royal Canadian destroyers and corvettes, as well as aircraft of the Royal Canadian Air Force. Throwing deadly U-boat “wolf packs” in the paths of the convoys, the German Kriegsmarine almost succeeded in cutting off this vital lifeline to a beleaguered Great Britain. During the desperate days and nights of the Battle of the Atlantic, the Royal Canadian Navy grew to 400 fighting ships and over 100,000 men and women in uniform; by V-E Day in 1945, it had become the fourth largest navy in the world. While Canadians think of the Great War battle of Vimy Ridge as the country's coming of age, it was the Battle of the Atlantic that proved Canada's gauntlet to victory and a nation-building milestone. Ted Barris is an award-winning journalist, author and broadcaster. His writing has regularly appeared in the national press as well as a wide variety of magazines. He's also worked as a host and contributor for CBC Radio, PBS, and TV Ontario. Barris is the author of 20 best-selling nonfiction books and is a member of the Order of Canada.

By the end of March, the Allies had lost over 80 vessels. The struggle wore on as more U-boats entered the Atlantic everyday.

Both Britain and Germany had tried to starve each other into submission on the high seas in the First World War.
