When he was taken prisoner he enthusiastically cooperated with his captors, which was likely due to the fact that his father had spent time in one of Hitler's Concentration Camps as a political prisoner. Eventually, U.S. Navy intelligence officers recruited Drechsler as a spy and placed him in a POW camp near Fort Meade, Maryland with other U-Boat sailors. After arrival, Dreschsler worked undercover, befriending his fellow POWs in order to collect information regarding German submarine technology, operational procedures/tactics and any other intelligence which could be useful to the allies.
