In Enemy Hands / int_56515a39	type	Artistic License â€“ History
In Enemy Hands / int_56515a39	comment	Artistic License – History: One of the American crew mentions all the things the Germans will do to them, including gassing them like the Jews. The existence of the gas chambers and the full extent of the Holocaust did not become known until the liberation of the camps by Allied troops in 1945. None of the vessels featured operated anywhere near each other. USS Swordfish operated in the Pacific, where she was the first American submarine to sink a Japanese ship. U-429 was commissioned in July 1943 and served as a training boat. U-821 made only two war patrols in 1944 before being sunk. U-1221 only made one patrol in 1944. USS Logan was actually an attack transport rather than a destroyer. After the Laconia incident in September 1942, German U-boats were ordered not to rescue survivors. Even before then, the Germans were unlikely to take prisoners simply due to the limited space on board, though they occasionally gave aid such as water, medical care, and a compass bearing to land. At the end of the film, the destroyer captain orders Travers to capture the Enigma machine and all code books. The fact that the Allies had broken the Enigma code was one of the most classified secrets of the war, and even if the captain had been aware of it, he certainly wouldn't have referred to it by name on an open radio channel where the Germans could possibly overhear.note When U-505 was captured by the Americans, its crew was isolated from other German prisoners in order to protect the fact that their code machines had been compromised. Their families believed they were dead until they returned home after the war. Mrs. Travers's car doesn't have an A, B, or C gasoline rationing sticker on the windshield.

In Enemy Hands / int_6eb4e408	type	Artistic License â€“ Military
In Enemy Hands / int_6eb4e408	comment	Artistic License – Military: The Germans address their officers and NCOs as "Herr [name]." Both past and present German military protocol has subordinates addressing their officers as "Herr [rank]." The Admiral addresses Travers by his first name "Nate." Given that Travers is an enlisted sailor many rank grades beneath him, this would be an enormous breach in US Navy protocol.

In Enemy Hands / int_7089d02e	comment	All Germans Are Nazis: Zig-Zagged. Jonas and Ludwig are both disillusioned with how the war is going for their country, as does a number of the U-429 crew. However, U-1221 prominently features the Nazi war ensign in the boat's control room, indicating its captain's fanatical devotion.

In Enemy Hands / int_e652089c	type	Artistic License â€“ Ships
In Enemy Hands / int_e652089c	comment	Artistic License – Ships: The film involves submarines fighting each other with torpedoes. Out of the thousands of hours logged by submarines on all sides during the war, there is only one recorded incident of a submarine sinking another with torpedoes. The submarines spend most of their time submerged. A diesel-electro boat of World War II could only spend about twenty hours submerged before surfacing to replenish their oxygen and recharge their batteries. Both German and American submarines spent most of their time surfaced, as they were much faster on the surface than submerged, and only dived to evade attacks. The introduction of the Schnorchel allowed U-boats to remain underwater indefinitely by replenishing their oxygen while submerged, but they weren't introduced until 1944. The U-boat makes several communications while deeply submerged. At the time, submarines could only send and receive messages while surfaced or at periscope depth. The American and German crews smoke inside the U-boat, which was an extreme fire hazard due to oil vapor and hydrogen. Smoking was only done on the observation platform while surfaced.
