Visit to U-995 and the Laboe memorial
 
Hi and happy new year everyone,


I've just made a dream come true a few days ago by visiting the memorial and the typeVII near Kiel.
While I live near the St Nazaire former U-Boote base, west of France, I bought an old truck with a broken engine, and worked on it for a few months so I could do the 3000km go and return during my holidays this winter with a friend. We had a nice trip and we were kinda sized with emotion visiting both the Memorial and U-995.
