It was on the date that I died in the War (WWII) that I began to remember who I am - the date was 7/8 March 2004, when I had a dream of being a U Boat commander. I did not know my identity for certain, but I was speaking with another commander in the dream. It was 1940, as we were wearing the captured British battledress uniforms salvaged from the evac. of Dunkirk. This other commander was Otto Kretschmer (The Tonnage King) - his boat was U 99.
It was not until I had a very specific dream that left no doubt as to my identity, and this happened in the same year - but it was April. In the dream, everything was 'cloudy' except for the sleeves and cuffs of my uniform jacket which I saw the 'piston rings'. I was going into this room and in it there was a large desk with papers, photographs, and other intelligence information. Behind the desk stood Admiral Doenitz and to either side of him were officers whose names I had to research - they were Wellner and Sobe. This dream was about taking up a raid upon Scapa Flow. Therefore, it is not much of a stretch to know who I am - Gunther Prien, commander of U 47. (My birth date 16 January, 1908).
In my life prior to this (the WWII era) - it was the 19th c. and I was a Swedish speaking Finn. My name - Carl Gustav Wilhelm Lindstrom. I was a sea captain involved in the Baltic trade, and possibly a ship owner. It took me some research in finding out my name - as it was not something that came to me right away. I had someone in Finland who was a member of a spiritual network I belonged to at the time, help me. Once that was finally cleared up - I managed to obtain 'records' of my shipping activities from Finland. I am still trying to research this life - I want to get information on the ships, but also my movements. I apparently moved out of Finland (I was born in Turku on 25 May, 1824) - and moved to Kotka, Aland - and was there for a few years and then left. When I moved there I was listed as a bachelor. I did not find anything about me moving back to Finland, so my guess is that I moved to Sweden - but I have to figure out how to find any of that information.
There is a lot of cross-overs so, for me it is one long life rather than two separate ones...I visited Lubeck, Germany during the 19th century...and then in the next life, lived there for some time. I was a sea captain in both lifetimes. I visited Finland and Sweden during my German lifetime. My father's name was Gustav - I have not done any sort of family research, but I just thought that was interesting. I don't consider Gustav a 'typical German name' - so I do not know what other ancestry I might have had then.
