During wartime what did they do with the windows in the conning tower?Did they paint over them or weld them shut?They seem like they would cause trouble due to glare or being destroyed by depth charges!I think I read something about it here, I just can't remember what was said.BTW this thread just gets better and better! I thought I knew alot about submarines, I was wrong!
