The 100-Foot Depth Trapped a German U-Boat
This episode explores the events surrounding the U-85, a German submarine operating off the American East Coast in 1942. It delves into the strategic miscalculations and technological advancements that set the stage for a dramatic encounter.
Date: April 14, 1942
Location: Off Bodie Island, North Carolina
German Submarine: U-85
American Destroyer: USS Roper
German Commander: Oberleutnant Eberhard Greger
- Forty-six German sailors departed Saint-Nazaire on March 21, 1942, aboard U-85, a Type VIIB submarine.
- The American East Coast was known as "Torpedo Alley" by German sailors due to the lack of defenses during Operation Drumbeat.
- U-85, commanded by 26-year-old Oberleutnant Eberhard Greger, was a modern warship but lacked radar.
- The USS Roper, a Wickes-class destroyer, was one of only seven ships in the Fifth Naval District equipped with new surface-search radar.
- The water off Bodie Island was 100 feet deep, a critical depth that prevented U-85 from performing standard evasion tactics.
