Many New Orleanians grew up hearing fragments of rumors that German U-boats patrolled the waters off Louisiana's coast during World War II. Many of them discounted those rumors as mere myth. As it turns out, though, they're not a myth at all. New Orleans did, indeed, have a Nazi problem during the war. Sonny Downs knows. He had a first-hand encounter with some of Hitler's henchmen -- and he lived to tell the tale.
