German naval officer Rolf Mützelburg was one of the outstanding figures of the WWII German U-boat arm. After obtaining regular successes against the North Atlantic convoys during his first four missions; he found new victims directly along the shores of Canada. Mützelburg received the highest decorations of the period and became one of the top U-boat aces. Furthermore; he shared with Adalbert Schnee; Teddy Suhren; and Erich Topp; the rare privilege of being affectionately nicknamed by Admiral Dönitz as “The Four Aces.†The discovery of a photo album from a U-203 crew member; complemented by images sourced at the U-Boat Archive at Cuxhaven; allows us to illustrate the astonishing history of this U-boat with 240 photographs and documents. The eleven combat missions of U-203 are precisely described thanks to numerous maps and sketches and the complete translation of its logbook.
