A former NCO serving on U 181 under Kapitan Wolfgang Luth and Kapitan zur See Kurt Freiwald--friends with my best German vet friend Karl Kaiser, has recently passed away. His name is Josef Grobelny--NCO on U 181.
I upkeep messages of this kind to serve many purposes. One of my ways to remember the gents I was so lucky to meet and greatful to be able to spend time with, when I was in Germany.
Another reason for these postings is also I want those who read it to know of and think about these gentlemen. Does not matter wether they are American, German, British, Dutch etc. It matters that we think of these men and that at least some of them know we do.
I hope those who are interested in contacting vets from any nation who fought in ww2, to do so soon. I cannot stress this enough.
Rest in peace sir.
