{"product_id":"2940148428992","title":"Ultra and the Campaign Against the U-Boats in World War II","description":"This book is about the extent to which the United States Navy used Ultra, or Special Intelligence, in the campaign against the German U-boats. Information was gathered through published and unpublished sources. Through a chronological approach, United States Navy involvement is traced from entry into the war until its conclusion. Many factors are involved in the final outcome of the war and Ultra is only one. The Battle of the Atlantic was long and gruesome rather than short and spectacular. The United States Navy used Ultra along with technology, tactics, brilliant leadership and courageous men at sea to win the Battle of the Atlantic in World War II. The lessons for the future are clear. If the United States intends to oppose the Soviet submarine force at sea anywhere in the world, then we must maintain the lead in intelligence, tactics and technology. Further, and most importantly, we must strive to regain superiority of forces in those ocean areas where our interests are at stake.\u003cbr\u003eIt has only in the last few years been generally known that at certain periods during World War II the allies were able to read German message traffic. This information, called special intelligence, became known as Ultra. The question for historians is how much must be rewritten in light of this knowledge? An examination of some campaigns of the war and the effect of Ultra on them certainly needs to be undertaken. This study is an attempt to look at the Battle of the Atlantic and the part that Ultra played in its outcome.\u003cbr\u003eContents hyperlinked for easy navigation.\u003cbr\u003eContents:\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION\u003cbr\u003eSTATEMENT OF PROBLEM\u003cbr\u003eINVESTIGATIVE PROCEDURE\u003cbr\u003eORGANIZATION OF THE PAPER\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER II: UNITED STATES ON THE DEFENSE\u003cbr\u003eEAST COAST MASSACRE\u003cbr\u003eULTRA, GREAT BRITAIN AND BLACKOUT\u003cbr\u003eORGANIZING TO FIGHT\u003cbr\u003eTHE CODE IS BROKEN\u003cbr\u003eULTRA AND CONVOYS\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER III: UNITED STATES ON THE OFFENSE\u003cbr\u003eTENTH FLEET ESTABLISHED\u003cbr\u003eTHE ESCORT CARRIERS\u003cbr\u003eULTRA AND THE BOGUE CRUISE OF JUNE\u003cbr\u003eTHE GERMAN REFUELER SUBMARINE\u003cbr\u003eTHE SINKING OF U-487\u003cbr\u003eTHE SINKING OF U-117\u003cbr\u003eTHE END OF SUMMER\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER IV: THE FINAL MONTHS\u003cbr\u003eULTRA CONSISTENTLY CURRENT\u003cbr\u003eAFTER D-DAY\u003cbr\u003eTHE CAPTURE OF U-505\u003cbr\u003eTHE FINAL DAYS\u003cbr\u003eCHAPTER V: CONCLUSION\u003cbr\u003eOBSERVATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS\u003cbr\u003eBIBLIOGRAPHY\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Seea Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47148941246704,"sku":"2940148428992","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148428992_p0.jpg?v=1763702672","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148428992","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
