Nonsens, its russian propaganda,
we learned that a young german u-boot captain, Juergen Luegner,
at the end of the war got the order to sink the Graf Zeppelin carrier
before it get caught by the enemy. After the War Juergen went to the US
and unfortunately he lost all his money playing Poker.
Lucky him, he still had the blue prints of the Graf Zeppelin Carrier,
the US Navy where very interested and for $10000 they got the blue prints.
Both where happy and we know how it ended. Juergen lost all his money
at Poker and the US Navy build carriers like the uss Nimitz, Enterprise, all
based on the Graf Zeppelin Design ;*)
