GODT: In isolated cases, yes.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: Did Commander, U-boats, object to these rescues?
GODT: I have no recollection of that.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: To your knowledge, did German U-boats deliberately kill survivors?
GODT: The only case I know of—and I heard of it after the capitulation—is that of Kapitänleutnant Eck. We heard an enemy broadcast which hinted at these happenings, but we were unable to draw any conclusions from that.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: I now hand to you the Prosecution’s Exhibit GB-203, which is regarded by the Prosecution as proof of the shooting of survivors. This is the war log of U-247 from which I mimeographed an extract on Page 74 of Volume II of my document book. This extract describes an attack made by the U-boat on a British trawler. You have already seen this war log. After his return, did the commander make a report on this action?
GODT: Yes.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: Did he report anything about the shooting of survivors on that occasion?
GODT: No.
FLOTTENRICHTER KRANZBÜHLER: According to a statement made by a survivor named McAllister this trawler, the Noreen Mary, had a gun aboard. Do you know whether trawlers had guns mounted fore or aft?
