Steel Boat, Iron Hearts by Hans Goebeler
Hans Goebeler is known to history as the man who pulled the plug on U-505 on June 4, 1944, due to his efforts to keep his beloved U-boat out of the hands of the Allied Task Group 22.3. Steel Boat, Iron Hearts is his no-holds-barred account of his life aboard a frontline combat U-boat.
Hans Jacob Goebeler was born in Bottendorf, Germany, on November 9, 1923. At the age of 17, he joined the Navy and served as control room mate aboard U-505. Years later, Goebeler moved his family to the United States to be close to his beloved boat and began penning his wartime memoir. Hans passed away in 1999. John P. Vanzo is a former defense program analyst from Bradenton, Florida. He has a Ph.D. in International Relations and currently teaches political science and geography courses at Bainbridge College in Bainbridge, Georgia.
