U-571 is the worst ever for a few reasons
1. the mission is pointless the engima has already been cracked by the time the film is set
2. the first U-Boat to actually be captured was almost by accident not a planned mission
3. it wasn't the USN it was the RN who captured the first enigma machine and all but 2 of all the enigma machines captured after that
4. the real U-571 was the only submarine to be captured by aircraft, all codes and the enigma machine were destroyed
