They involved hundreds of thousands of participants, ranged across hundreds of miles and inflicted the most terrible destruction. But none of them were as long-running, as vast or as crucial to allied victory as that fought at sea in the Atlantic, where for four years Allied navies and civilian sailors fought a life or death struggle against Germany’s U-boats. This is the story of how it was fought, and how it was won. 0:00 - WW2's Most Important Battle 0:45 - The U-Boat Menace in the Early Years 8:53 - The Massacre off the Eastern Seaboard 13:12 - American ship printer go brrrrrrrrr 19:31 - The Allies gain the upper hand 21:49 - Black May: The Convoy Battles of 1943 24:41 - The Most Important Victory of WW2 Credits: Lead Animation for this video by: https://twitter.com/Scuffed_Lund Supporting animation by: https://twitter.com/addaway23 Artwork by: https://twitter.com/ChrisbyFlanker Written, Directed and Produced by: https://twitter.com/addaway23 Come join the historigraph discord: https://discord.gg/ygypfs3BEB Sources: Evan Mawdsley, The War for the Seas Phillips Payson O’Brien, How the War was Won Michael Gannon, Black May Michael Gannon, Operation Drumbeat Stephen Roskill, The War at Sea (Vols 1-3) Naval Staff History, The Defeat of the Enemy Attack on Shipping, 1939-45 Music Credits: "Rynos Theme" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ "Crypto" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ "Stay the Course" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Other music and SFX from Epidemic Sound
