Asked by Amy~

the question is :

would a "visit and search" policy be possible for the Germans?

(this is about the unrestricited submarine warfare)

I thought yes but then ... I don't know
Another source said that it was not possible
Answered by Ms. Sue
It wouldn't be possible for the allies to use the "visit and search" policy for German submarines. The policy states that only commercial vessels can be searched. Submarines were only used for the war.

But, the visit and search policy benefited the U.S.

So, would it not matter if Germans searched a neutral merchant ship

Answered by Ms. Sue
The Germans could search a neutral merchant ship -- but I doubt if they used submarines for that.
