April 13, 1945, rain
It was raining in Berlin
The expression on everyone’s face was gloomy, just like the clouds above the Berlin sky
There was tragic news from afar After a few days of intense battle on the streets, Vienna had finally fallen to the hands of the Soviets At the sa had also fallen, those polar bears have finally achieved the dreae to accomplish for a few centuries – claiood news fro to the west line
Anyone kneas the end of the Reich
As a soldier, excusetoo many comments on the fate of the Reich, but from a husband, a father perspective, I would rather the UA citizens arrive in Berlin first
God, what a
It was foggy Perhaps it is going to turn sunny soon
There was good news Whether the east line or the west line, they didn’t send back any worse news
There was no better news than this But everyone knew, this was the quietness before the stor, I received an order for a position change
Should I say the h I took on an office role, this is the moment I have to carry a rifle and shed o as I had planned, you would never guess who I saw
In the Berlin presidential building’s baselorious leader!
I could not describe the excite speech for a long time A lot of people said that he ran aith hisHe was still in Berlin! He still stood with us
Although his face looked wrier compared to the last ti
He chatted with s It was hard to believe a nobody likewith hinificent him and talked about the history of Berlin
When the topic came to an end, he asked me about my loyalty
I said, “If you need ht for you to the death now Whether it is the east side or the west side”
He said, “Rather than death, I have a ive you”
Hard to believe, the great leader personally granted me the iron cross e in the army, and I am not even a soldier in the frontline What do I have in me to receive such an honor?
But his words eliminated all of my concerns
“If you can coive you, your contribution to the Third Reich will be deserving of this eave to me
Then, I was taken out of the basehter for the last tiot on the Me262B booster jet and flew to Norway
To be honest, I didn’t want to see the that this ht be a one-way trip

April 15, sunny
Perhaps, this will bethe weather in this diary, at least in the upco few months
We headed out fro with the U-234 in different directions while ai for the same destination – far east, japan
The moment when I boarded the submarine, I realized the critical nature of the circu me All of theent If it was not for the iron cross emblem, I don’t even know if they would even look at h, no one paid attention to the emblem in front of me, but instead seemed to be more interested in the briefcase in my hand
Based on etiquette, everyone introduced themselves Air force commander, land force colonel, vessel cannon specialist… I was just a communication soldier
God, they are the elites of the Reich, ould they be here? Sitting with a nobody like e”?

Based on what the captain said, we are navigating in the north Atlantic ocean heading to the south Atlantic ocean
Because ere in the sea, someone finally stood up to describe the mission details
This submarine contained the peek of the Third Reich raer tank drawings, Me-262 fighter’s all parts and design prints
These ies and weapon samples will be taken to Tokyo
As to the ten barrels, the captain didn’t really know either He just categorized them as a raw material used for some kind of weapon
The atst each other, or rather spend the ti to decrease the ti to speak to h I didn’t understand what nuclear physics exactly is, it didn’t interfere with our friendshi+p
He said, in this environment, only when people chat with people could they ree with his perspective When I as

Today we talked about nuclear physics, although I have absolutely no idea what it is
U-235 Based on what Fabian said, it is an ominous set of letter and numbers It was the code for this U boat, as well as the shortened form of Uranium 235
I didn’t knohat Uraniu can be used to create a powerful bo this ten barrels of uraniue history
I scoffed at the co on the battlefield, I knew that a few boe the victor of the battle If it could, we already would have done it We sent at least ten thousand rounds of shells to London
“But this bomb is different compared to the other ones”
“Is that so? What about the V2 rocket?”
Fabian laughed contemptuously
“It is comparable to the combined total of all V1, and V2 rockets launched to London”
Okay, I think he is a little insane now

The situation is beconal station responsible for providing direction for us suddenly lost conal station in Berlin Nahn had also lost contact
With the inter we feared still happened
Ger, the Reich’s navy commander Dunnitz had ordered all U boats to i and surrender to the Ally force
Everyone was silent
Soested this ence department But someone pointed out, it may be the cause, since the moment when they boarded the submarine, Berlin was already in a dire situation
The co-captain suggested opening radio silence to confirm the validity of the information But the captain didn’t accept his proposal as he ordered to continue
U-235 is not part of the force as it directly listened to the order of the leader, there was no need to listen to Dunnitz The destination is Tokyo
Regardless, the submarine continued to cruise But I could clearly sense, not everyone was pleased with the order, including the captain himself

We just sailed by Argentina as we entered the Pacific ocean from the most southern tip of South UA
By noe should finally escape the allies fleet chasing us
But no one feels happy about this good news
Germany already surrendered, but we are the soldiers of Ger?
Perhaps we should surrender to the nearby ally force, as long as we are careful not to o home Since we didn’t commit any crile torpedo
