High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Heinrich Lehmann-Willenbrock (11 December 1911 - 18 April 1986) was a German naval officer and submarine commander during World War II. He was sixth among the top ten Aces of the Deep during the Second Battle of the Atlantic against the Allies, in terms of tonnage of merchant ships sunk. He commanded four U-boats, and his most notable and successful tour was commanding the U-96 a Type VIIC U-boat, which gained widespread recognition when one of its patrols was documented and publicized by an accompanying war correspondent Lothar-G nther Buchheim. The story of the U-96 was eventually made into a mini-series and film called Das Boot, in which he was portrayed by J rgen Prochnow.
