Atlantic Ocean KM Gridmap showing Europe Africa greenland Iceland and the US/ Central America
Waters Around England/ Gibralter
Far North Atlantic covering the area of the western approaches
they look fantastic when carefully cut out and taped together and could almost be used for plotting intercepts and navigational plotting though i doubt i will go that far! if laminated with large laminating sheets one could easily plot all of their sinkings on the charts over the span of a career and use a marker to mark mine fields and net positions as well as known convoy routes

I bought a replica grid map off ebay a while ago - colour, glossy paper, A2 size (16.5" × 23.4"). Quite cheap. Lovely.
Also wanted one of these reefer jackets...

BTW those wanting uniforms and stuff may like
http://www.replicaters.com/ww2germannavy.html I've never bought from them, but what they offer doesn't look too bad.
