I read somewhere recently that as regards the U-boats sunk during Operation Deadlight there is a salvage operation planned because of the quality of the steel used in the construction of their pressure hulls. It seems that the world was a much cleaner environment when they were constructed and the steel in question has a low level of radioactivity and is therefore much better suited for the production of hyper-sensitive meters than is present day steel.
