Origin of U-869

Deschimag AG Weser, Bremen was where U-869 was built in April of 1943. Then it was launched later that year in October. Kptlt. Hellmut Neuerburg was the head of this submarine. This sub was thought to be originally sunk by USS Fowler, but possibly could have been sunk by one of its own acoustic torpedoes. It was found 60 miles off the shore of New Jersey and people didn't believe U-Boats were that close to the US shore.
