Many people know very little about the Atlantic Theater or the Battle of the Atlantic. It was a critical field of World War II and saw some of the first actions of this war. The British may have had the world’s greatest navy, but the Germans had almost won the first World War by employing their submarines (U-Boats), so not surprisingly they used this tactic again in the Atlantic. Britain needed supplies and they could only come over the water and largely from the United States. With FDR’s behind-the-scenes help using the U.S. Navy, the Brits fought to keep the shipping lanes open and safe.
If you want to have a fuller background to the material in our series, please consider purchasing the workbook I wrote for my high school history classes, Modern United States History, published by Canon Press, in Moscow, Idaho. But whether you get the workbook or just listen, I think you will enjoy the stories and hopefully gain some insights into U.S. history, which is indeed His story!
Thanks for listening - Tom Garfield
