Hue's interesting post about the quote from the German U boat logbook, made me go on a hunt for it since I am a sucker for historical information like this, and a real book to read it from.  I copied and pasted the German title in the Duck Duck Go search bar, and it immediately displayed a Google link direct to Hue's post, verbatim as he typed it, in the clear, with no indication it came from the milsurp list.  It is downright scary what comes up when you put in your own phone number, your call sign, your name.   George Orwell must have been a time traveler writing about our future.
