Default recent trip to U.S.S. Batfish

Here are photos from my recent trip to the Batfish, the first one is a photo from my
grandpas album from when he was in the navy.

Brilliant stuff man, thanks for sharing. As I live in Germany (Frankfurt am Main) sort a smack in the middle of Deutschland...I need to go to Kiel "Marinegedenkstätte in Laboe" to see the "U-995 Typ VIIC", about 6-7 h drive to the north coast of Germany.
Planing a visit this summer. Vid is not from me, but cool all the same.
