What was the material effect of the Battle of the Atlantic for the general public's standard of living? Were there increases in food prices? Were there any odd commodities that suddenly were in short supply (like shaving razors and socket wrenches)? Did frontline units suddenly find themselves without regular shipments of equipment, food, fuel, and ammo? Moreover, were these effects acute or chronic (i.e. a convoy losing a few ships leading to a sudden spike in the prices of certain commodities over a few days or weeks as opposed to these commodities being constantly more expensive/difficult to obtain)?
I understand the Battle of the Atlantic was a rather decisive victory for the allies, with England not being thrown out of the war and the majority of American equipment not winding up at the bottom of the Atlantic.
