From Historical Re-writes to Modern Renavigation unclewest, Re: there was very very little coordination between those three. The Italians and Germans didn't conduct joint strategy in the early days of WWII? Uncle, I didn't realize how good you could be at fiction writing. As to the Nazi-Japanese co-ordination, there is the fascinating story of the fateful meeting of two Axis submarines on June 23, 1944 in the mid-Atlantic: uh.edu Here's an interesting example of "a little coordination": "You see, Japan had raw materials, and Germany had technical know-how. In the late days of WW-II, the Japanese loaded the I-52 with 300 tons of the tin, molybdenum, tungsten, and rubber that Germany desperately needed. They meant to buy German technology, and they included more than 2 tons of gold to sweeten the deal." The wreck of the I-52 was found by Paul Tidwell. Now a rich man. He used renavigation techniques: nauticos.com nauticos.com (Lots on the I-52) Curious readers will find "The Universe Below", by the NY Times Science Writer William Broad to be fascinating: amazon.com This is where I first learned about the I-52 All the best, Ray
