One Cook’s Crazy Idea That Saved Thousands of Sailors From the Atlantic Wolves
In the freezing chaos of 1942, convoys crossing the Atlantic were being torn apart by German U-boats — the “wolves” of the sea.
But aboard one merchant ship, a ship’s cook had an idea so bizarre, so unmilitary, that no one took him seriously…
until it started saving lives.

This is the forgotten story of one man’s “crazy” invention — a makeshift method that kept Allied sailors warm, alive, and invisible to the enemy’s sonar.
Sometimes, the smallest minds change the biggest wars.
