Without detracting from any individual’s leadership qualities, much of the defeat of the U-boats came from advances in the technology used to fight them, inter alia Huff Duff, short wave radar, hedgehogs, closing the air gap and combined ops.

Horton was a devout Roman Catholic . . . . he understood determination and probably benefited from inspirational ideas too.

Hello... history here... WATU and Bletchley park broke the Uboats, they were getting their arses kicked prior. This video is bullshit... Horton was in charge, but it was the people under and over him that made the breakthroughs.... this is crap history.
