The Monsson boats are often over looked and behind the propaganda images the relationship between the Germans and teh Japanese was at times a little uneasy and co operation was not always forthcoming , the German creews occasionally being caught up between the inter service rivalary which existed between the IJN and IJA.
( The Japanese themselves having their own racist views towards "Westerners" , it is ironic that this being so much a propaganda platform for the Japanese that they had to dismantle it in the ports used by the Kriegsmarine , something of a contradiction when westerners appear as an a friend and helper).
