History
The Allies wanted to use the Atlantic to resupply Great Britain and the Soviet Union in their fight against Germany and Italy.
The Axis Powers wanted to stop them
. This fight for control of the Atlantic Ocean is called the Battle of the Atlantic.
The Battle of the Atlantic was the struggle between the Allied and German forces for control of the Atlantic Ocean. The Allies needed to keep the vital flow of men and supplies going between North America and Europe, where they could be used in the fighting, while the Germans wanted to cut these supply lines. To do this, German submarines, called U-boats, and other warships prowled the Atlantic Ocean sinking Allied transport ships.
