Question U-boot in Danish water found

anyone have further info on this from the Danish newspapers ? ....... taken from another forum

After 12 years search, four danish sports divers, last week found the wreck of the German submarine U 2359, witch were sunk by british moskito bombers, may the second, 1945, near the danish island "Læsø".
Until last week, U 2359 was the only missing german ww2 submarine wreck in danish waters, witch hadn't been found.

thank you Kai for the interesting link and the copy which I have done on the translation. have you heard anything about this in Finland at all ?

do wonder what will happen if it will be protected if it can be, raised up or left as a memorial. as they said it is the only one left in the world even though it is a sunken hulk

Unhappy Re: U-boot in Danish water found

Unfortunately missed it the first time around but I suppose the papers had some more important news at the time...though I cannot figure what that could be...

Amazing Ihope they can at least save some of the wreckage, it would be a shame to loose it again, but this time against time

I suppose they need to get decent camera equipment to get photos of the wreck....so far did not find anything about the wreck itself other than what we already have.
