Smokestack: That was also something I wasnt aware of until over the last few years about uboats with all kinds of small arms. We learn something new every day eh?

Liked your Pez Dispenser joke [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thanks for the Aircraft info.

I also agree with your last two comments too.

Tallyrand: Yep, U 505 is still on display in Chicago. Every year the surviving vets still get together. There are now only 5 U 505 crew still living.

If ever in Germany, you can see the following Uboats on display. U 2540 at Bremerhaven (Hope I got the number right) it is a type XXI. Then you have U 995 in Laboe which is the only surviving type VII-C still existing, then you have U 10 which is in Wilhelmshaven.
