The current occupant of a secluded home on one of Spain’s Canary Islands is determined to find out whether it was once used by the Nazis as a secret U-boat base. Born in the Black Forest region of Germany in 1893, Winter moved to the Canary Islands in 1925. "I am sure Gustav Winter was provisioning German submarines," Fumero told the BBC. It is well known that Spanish ports were major refueling and provisioning sites for German U-boats between 1940 and 1942. Fumero may be convinced that Villa Winter was a Nazi base, but others say there is a need for more hard evidence before a final decision is made.
