Carl, Erich,
Yes I do know about the membership for the conningtower. But I can't get onto the site anymore at all! 'Gummi'wrote back he didn't understand and also that he had put an anouncement on his site. I will get him (and this forum) more info as I get it.
Carl, maybe you know this; I believe pictures cannot be posted here, right. Then I should contact Otto, or send the stuff to you for 'further processing', provided there is a space for this stuff on ww2n.com.
Erich, Great to hear about Barry. Haven't heard from him in a while. He got some exciting news about the Jan.11 1944 mission with which I think I was able to help him out. Will write him soon with the results of the chats I had with US vets...Can't wait to read his book!
Latest news; Not much joy for all you non-Dutch speakers, but there will be an interview with Hans Wachmuth on the Dutch TV next Tuesday, together with an item about the 'Bergung'. Also the municipality of Bergen has part of their webiste dedicated to the salvage and they will publish pictures almost every day. Mind you the site is in Dutch and so far the pictures are not that good or interesting.
Go to ;
http://www.bergen-nh.nl/welkom.htm click on ACTUELE INFORMATIE and then the article with says either SEEHUND or BERGING DUIKBOOT. The pictures are pretty small and right now not much can be seen, but it has two pitures of the "manhole" poking out of the surface by low tide...
The media here is starting to pick up on it...
