While doing some reading about naval battles in the Mediterranean during WWII, I stumbled across this profile of a U-Boat commander.
It was the last line that gave me the giggles.
A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.

Welcome to my whining!
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

I wonder if he belongs to the Bauhaus school of thinking?
"These torpedoes are FAAAAAABULOUS!"
"Aye," said the kapitanlieutenant, "from the look in the cabin boy's eye, I'd say we're in for a blow!"
"Hey, sailor...why don't you show me the poop deck?"
(sorry, that was bad)
Wanna see my periscope go up?
Well afterall, he was....
"In the Navy..."
You can sail the 7 seas...
"In the Navy..."
6 years of war time submarine service, must have been one cool customer. I knew a guy who disarmed bombs in the big one and he was as unflappable as they come.
Psychiatrist should be studying these guys. We need more of the type and less of the "Reality TV Types"
you'll sing a different tune, if you ever crawl inside one of those WWII submarines on "display" in various docks, parks, etc... real men DO decorate!
I'll bet he was really good at making the most out of tight spaces.
Gotta ask the bubblehead at my house what he thinks of Herr Freiherr.
My submariner knows how to decorate: he can stash stuff in the smallest of spaces around the house (from years of practice with golf clubs, bowling balls and vinyl LPs on a nuclear sub).
Seriously, Dr. G, have you seen how tiny the interior compartments are on a U-boat? Only a truly dedicated interior decorator can turn all that negative space into one of form and functionality. Frankly, I'm surprised interior decorating wasn't a pre-req for u-boat captains.
