You wouldn't believe that if you watched a documentary I saw on the History Channel (I think). It said bombs did penetrate the pens (none ever did) and gave the impression boats were destroyed there. It also said the Germans fought a very dirty U-boat war, and called Reinhard Hardegen of U-123 Reinhard Harding

I suppose it could have been damage from the blast wave of a bomb that got me, or indeed some concrete falling down onto the deck. Either way they aren't as safe as I thought they would be
