Anyone have pictures of U-boat Log Book.
 
Hi, I would like to get hold of a picture of the cover & blank page (page with no entries) of a U-Boat Captains log book. If someone can help could you please PM me for email address, post a picture, or point me to where I can get a snapshot please.:D
Many Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help JMack, & will chase up the websites provided, will email them for some good snapshots, I can't read german so makes things a little harder but can use Googles language converter if I need to. Probably more essential for a shot of one of the pages.:yep: I think you will agree!

Reece 12-09-06 03:38 AM

Unfortunately the email address for www.u47.org is a dud, I just get an error, I couldn't find any downloads there except for some wallpapers & a map.:cry:
Will keep trying though!:up:

I suppose you're looking for the so-called KTB or Kriegstagebuch, which is in essence a logbook in which the position of the U-boot at certain intervals and other events (like torpedo-runs, sightings, under attack, communications etc.) are noted.

Sadly this is (still) not available in SH3 :nope:, so (as the idiot that I am :doh:- or so my girlfriend thinks), I write all these events down on a piece of paper. Just for my own fun, because I don't really use it for anything else. It's just an immersion factor for me.

The template for my KTB I've taken from several (copies) of KTB's I have in possesion. I purchased them from someone on eBay. I could scan a few pages but I don't want to kill his bussines though, so I'll give you his eBay name; He is called "wemsen".

By the way, I am not connected to this person in any way. I just purchased several KTB's and copies of original photo's from him. He is a good seller with reasonable prices, and at the moment he has several KTB's for sale http://cgi.ebay.com/U-Boot-Kriegstag...QQcmdZViewItem.

Hope this helped a bit.
If you don't want to buy from him, but would like some scans from me just send me a pm...;)

Regards,
DerXL

Works for me...
Here's the link for the logbook
http://www.u47.org/downloads/u47log_map.zip

Reece 12-09-06 08:08 PM

Hi, the download is only for the map, & it's the email (contact us) link that is dead!
Thanks DerXL but I am not going to pay for a picture of a Kriegstagebuch cover and blank page, I'm not interested in the contents just the layout to do basically what you have done creating a KTB (if this is the U-Boats Commanders log book).

Jmack 12-09-06 08:13 PM

no one is telling you to pay ... just use the photo as reference

Reece 12-09-06 08:45 PM

Hi Jmack, if I missunderstood, I'm sorry, but it doesn't read that way:

You would think it easy to find, I went to the link but the pictire quality is too poor to read the titles (headings), and if I was to place a bid I assume that he is expecting, including post around $20 for a photocopy of 1 page!! (Note I can't read German). Seems like a rip off to me!
I think I might give up on this!:down:
