I was very surprised to find a Mudcat thread on this great PBS show, but pleased! This was an excellent show. I am sure it'll be repeated you PBS viewers, so please keep your eye out for it (it was an episode of Nova). And yes, some personal update to history on Reuban James - among others. I wonder what Woody would have thought of the U-Boat captain and the new facts uncovered - but the incident has its place in history and lore and the newer information is, at this point, anecdotal.

Thanks for starting the thread!
