An exciting race against time to uncover the lost wrecks of WWII's most epic campaign... the Battle of the Atlantic. Ian Lawler and a team of deep sea divers are on a mission to map the lost wrecks of the battle. But it isn't easy. The dive season is short, the weather is wild, and the wrecks are rusting away. The team has to fight high winds, terrible sea conditions and unexpected challenges to chart these forgotten wrecks and reveal the untold stories of the Battle. Will Ian and the team be able to complete their mission in time? The Pentagon's naval expert Dr. Randy Papadopolous, and German U-boat specialist Dr. Axel Niestle are on hand to study the underwater footage, identify the wrecks and help Ian piece together the stories behind the Battle. Could one of the wrecks prove to be Hitler's deadliest U-boat?
