Scourge of the Atlantic by Ivan Berryman. \u003cp\u003eThe ten German U-Boats of the Type VIIA class operating in the seas around the United Kingdom and Ireland were so deadly in the first part of the war, they were the scourge of the Atlantic.  Sinking much Allied merchant shipping in the first months of World War Two, they continued through the 'Happy Time' of the Battle of the Atlantic, where the tally of shipping claimed by U-boats reached a peak, and the crews were regarded as heroes.  Famously, U-29 sunk the Royal Navy carrier HMS Courageous on 17th September, the first British warship sunk by German forces in World War Two.  By the end of 1940 though, 6 of the boats had been sunk and the remaining 4 were used only for training.  In total they had accounted for around 100 vessels sunk, damaged, or captured.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLimited edition of 10 artist proofs. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Image size 26 inches x 19.5 inches (66cm x 50cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54135274766669,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWdhm6718.jpg?v=1781872457","url":"https:\/\/militaryaviationartprints.com\/products\/scourge-of-the-atlantic-by-ivan-berryman-ap","provider":"Military Aviation Art Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
