In the Parodies
In the U-Boat Parodies, Werner has been given the job as Captain Heinrich Lehmann-Willenbrock's master of Antics, making him his "answer" to Hermann Fegelein. However, unlike Fegelein, Werner is relatively inexperienced, and is slowly learning how to commit antics. So far, he has only commited one antic, which was suggested by Captain Willenbrock. It involved taking pictures of the submarine, and sending them in a folder marked "very important news" to Adolf Hitler and possibly Joseph Stalin.
