Uebersee Sued: The Ultimate Truth about Nazis Fled to South America
After WW II, at least five German U-boats reached Argentina with no less
than 50 high ranked Third Reich officials on board. During the trip they
sunk a US battle ship and the Brazilian cruiser Bahia with a death toll
of more than 400, including US citizens. Both the US and the British
Government have systematically covered up the operation. Why? Did they
take Hitler to Patagonia?
Supporting their research with irrefutable first hand documentation, two
Argentine investigators, Carlos De Napoli and Juan Salinas, made an
extraordinary contribution to unveil what has been called the last
secret of World War II. Ubersse Süd, Overseas South in English, is the
name of the operation that, according with this investigation, helped
high Nazi officials to escape from the Soviet fist under the umbrella of
the British Government and the US hawks.
"WWII finished on May 7th 1945 and the first submarine arrives in
Argentina on July 10. The second one, in August 17", says De Napoli. The
Argentine investigator makes reference to the well-known landing of the
German U-boats U-530 and U-977 that surrendered to the Argentine Navy in
those days.
This is a fact, as their commanders Otto Wermuth and Heinz Schäffer,
respectively, were arrested and interrogated several times in Buenos
Aires, Washington and London. However, what has been systematically
covered up by US and British authorities is the fact that they sunk the
USS Eagle 56 battle ship in front of the US coasts and the Brazilian
cruiser Bahia, amid three other vessels. So, the immediate question is
why the British and the Americans (from the North and the South)
harbored the assassination of more than 400 people when the war had
finished two months ago?
"There was a conspiracy against the USSR. It was the Operation Sunrise
(Crossword for the British) designed to stop the advance of Stalin
troops over Europe. Therefore, the English needed to count with German
officers and soldiers to continue the war against Russia and destroy
communism. Ubersse Süd is part of this large operation", explains Juan
Salinas, former investigator of the bomb attack to a Jewish club in
Buenos Aires in 1995.
Unfortunately is impossible to check this information with official
sources as documents related to Operation Sunrise have been classified
by both the US and British authorities: Top Secret. It means that they
are kept out from the insidious sight of investigators for 75 years.
Another detail: they are the only ones that remain classified about
World War II.
"Churchill was the mastermind of the escape. The Argentine Navy
established a free zone to let Germans to disembark without disturbs,
following British instructions", told Salinas to PRAVDA.Ru. In fact,
exists an order issued by Argentine authorities to stop attacks to
German submarines operating close to the Argentine beaches. The cautious
reader may point out why other forces attacked the German U-boats if the
British Government was behind the operation. De Napoli answers:
"Churchill successors (Tories lost the elections immediately after the
war and the Labor Party came into power), did not want the operation to
go on."
However, as facts show, the operation went ahead and no less than 50
Third Reich high officials found cover in the desolated lands of
Southern regions of Argentina and Chile. It is important to notice that
the Patagonia holds the largest German community of Latin America and
many Nazi and Ustasha's criminals lived there after the war: Menguele,
Eichmann, Martin Bornmann -NSDAP General Secretary-, Ante Pavelic and
Erick Priebke among others.
According with documentation supplied by the Argentine, Brazilian and US
navies, the Norwegian and Danish Embassies in Buenos Aires and the
United States National Archives and Record Administration -NARA-,
Salinas and De Napoli could recreate the trip of the U-boats. Juicy data
has been also provided by the memories of Hanz Schaeffer, Commander of
the U-977.
A fleet of almost 20 submarines sailed out from the Norwegian port of
Bergen, between May 1st and the capitulation of the Third Reich, six
days later. They joined another group of U-boats coming from the US
coasts (the U-530 and others) in Cape Verde, an Atlantic archipelago
close to Africa. There, they got noticed that the Flensburg Government,
headed by Great Admiral Dönitz after Hitler dismissal, and kept alive by
the Western Allies until May 23rd 1945, had fallen.
Consequently, German commanders, whom expected a new turn on
international politics based in the outbreak of a conflict between the
Soviet Union and the Anglo-Saxons, became aware that they would have to
go on by their own. Some Kriegmarine Officers decide to sink their
U-boots, surrender to the enemy or come back to Europe. However, at
least six U-boats, including the U-530 and the U-977, headed South to
Argentina carrying on "heavy" passengers and gold.
"Then, the tragedy came", points out Salinas. "Disguised as fishing
vessels, the German submarines sail on the sea. Shortly after crossing
the Equator Line, they come across with the operation to guide US planes
to Japan. The route Natal - Dakar." The Brazilian cruiser Bahia, was
taking part of the operation when, according with the results of the
investigations, was shot by two acoustic torpedoes fired by the U-977.
The toll: 336 crewmembers died in what is, by far, the largest-ever
catastrophe of the Brazilian Navy.
William Joseph Eustace, Andrew Jackson Pendleton, Emmet Peper Salles and
Frank Benjamin Sparks, were the four US radio operators of the Bahia.
They died after the shooting, but the US Government reported them as
"disappeared". Obviously, this is the main reason why the German
Government did not cooperate on Salinas and De Napoli's investigation.
The Brazilians said that the sunk of the Bahia was a fatal accident;
exactly the same speech of the US Navy on the shooting of the USS Eagle
56... until last year. Then, the U-977, the U-530 and others went down
to Argentina and the first two surrendered to the local authorities.
Was Adolf Hitler a passenger on one of these U-boats? De Napoli answers:
"We think that Hitler, Eva Braun, Grettel Braun and Martin Bornmann
escaped thanks to this operation. However, we cannot assure whether
Hitler landed in Argentina or not." Martin Bornmann died in Paraguay.
Perhaps, Stalin's suspects become true someday: "Hitler fled either to
Spain or to Argentina", he told to the that-time US Secretary of State,
James Byrne. But this is subject to further investigations.

Mi sembra così strano che un Uboot che dovrebbe portare in salvo dei capi
nazisti rischie perda tempo ad affondare navi da battaglia (cosa tutt'altro
che facile, del resto).
Il Bahia non era affondato per un'esplosione interna?
Comunque mi documento per vedere di trovare qualche altro dato.

E poi il Maine (battle ship è un po' esagerato, diciamo corvetta) è andato
perso al largo del Maine, non proprio
Il Bahia non era affondato per un'esplosione interna?
Non ho ben capito il perché gli alleati dovrebbero aver coperto queste
perdite e neppure che legami ci siano con la fantomatica operazione di
salvataggio dei gerarchi nazisti.
