Yes yes! Read the book Iron Coffins if you want the crap scared out of you. The movie Das Boot was on the big screen and I went to see it. I had two years of high school German so I could pick up enough with some sub titles to really fall into the story. When they were sitting on the bottom of the Gibraltar straights I was sweeting bullets right along with them. When the young kid asks the captain what our chances are. The captain says "Es tut mir leid". English it means I am sorry. In German it means a little more like , I am so sorry I want to hand you my heart. We would come close by saying we are screwed or the f word. That engineer looked like a walking skeleton. The ending of what movie was horrible. The guy who wrote the book was all "P" off cause the six hour German TV mini series wasn't real enough!!! The movie was shot in real Uboats and sets that were as correctas possible. Some of the film crews had problems getting claustrophobic. All of this going back to your entry. At the opening of the movie it says 40 thousand German sailers went to see in U boats......30 thousand of them didn't come back. One other movie you want to watch. Peter o'Toole in "Murphy's War". What an arse kicking movie. Please watch it.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
