At the beginning of 1942 during World War II, the German Navy ushered in a new phase of the Battle of the Atlantic with Operation Paukenschlag, or “Drumbeat.” Axis naval forces were given free rein to harass and destroy all Allied vessels, military or otherwise, along the East Coast of the United States. German U-boats did the heaviest lifting, ravaging mostly merchant ships early in the campaign. During this operation, the Axis powers sank a total of 3.1 million tons of Allied hardware, or 609 ships, while only losing 22 U-boats. Historians criticized the Allied response to the attacks, with Historian Michael Gannon describing it as "America's Second Pearl Harbor"...
