I read your analysis and also would like to thank you. It certainly gives me a lot to think about.

Also wrt your observation
"It was very moving. Hundreds of bronze plaques, each inscribed with the Sub's number, the date on which the boat met its end, the manner in which it was sunk, the names of the crewmen, and their respective ages Few were beyond their early twenties.",
I can see how that would really move you. However, there is a flip side to those young men that lost their lives in the German subs. I am in the process of reading Churchill's books on WWII and there were a whole lot more innocent young men, women and children as well as huge amounts of supplies and material that were wasted by those subs. For every German plaque, there ought to be 100 for the victims.
