U-711!

[StarLion45]

The " U -711 "was leaving Spitsbergen with three-3 raindeer on the deck . They had hunted them down on the island , and was on their way back to NorthernNorway , when they beeing attacked by british ships . They had to deepdive with those raindeer on the deck for 30 hours while the depthcharges sorrounded them and exploaded .
Later when those raindeer beeing served in Narvik , the Germans knew it wast the most delightful and tender meat they ever tasted Those depthcharges has shaked the meat tender I think:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I read the article in a magazine related to " German SubMarine in Norway "

Where the raindeer alive before they submerged?
If so, holding your breath for 30 hours might be challenging!

You would think with a number like 7-11 they would have just settled for a Big Gulp and a hot dog !

No, when he tells us they were on the deck, they must be outside the boat:hmm:

When you enter the hatch does the bell go ding?

I'm sure the torpedoes are overpriced!

30 hours in sea water, with depth charge pressure waves pounding into the carcasses? So, they were eating "salted venison" - gag!?!
