Just look into those facts:
* 12 patrols and over of 220 000 tonns sunk during the whole war.
* Scuttled in August,1944.
* After lying on the bottom for a whole year,the U-Boat is raised by French forces in 1945 and becomes a submarine of the French Navy.
*Another 14 years of service until 1959.
*Nobody knows where the U-Boat is now,as it was decomissioned in 1959.
Will anybody say that this U-Boat is not of the very special kind?   |
If it were that special....surely somebody would know of it's fate :hmm:
