The '''Kriegsmarine''' was [[Germany]]'s Navy during [[World War II]] containing the infamous U-Boat groups. The U-Boats were very feared and very destructive. Its codes were cracked in 1941 and was taking heavy casualties, but made new codes in later 1941 and inflicted many [[Allies]] casualties. In 1943 the last codes were cracked and all that was left of the Kriegsmarine was drawn back from the [[Atlantic Ocean]].
