In the '''Battle of the Atlantic''', across a long-running campaign, [[Directory:Germany|German]] [[submarine|U-Boats]] attempted to deprive the British Isles of necessary [[Lend Lease]] cargo from the [[Directory:United States|United States]]. The U-Boats reduced shipments considerably; however, the [[Directory:United Kingdom|United Kingdom]] refused to seek peace, with [[Prime Minister]] [[Winston Churchill]] stating that "We shall never surrender". [[President]] [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] announced a shift in the American stance from neutrality to "non-belligerency".
