Anyone have any cool fleet boat history links?

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone had any good historical links/videos/sound clips from fleet boats. When I look stuff up it mostly just goes to wikipedia but Im sure the internet has more to offer. For example does anyone have a sound clip of what a depth charge actually sounds like in a WW2 sub? Ive been reading all about it and I would love to actually hear one (even if I cant feel it).

So, share em if you got em! Im sure the web has more to offer amateur historians like me more than wikipedia/valour at sea/uboat.net (which are all great of course)

You can search wav files and get sounds only for about anything.

Sweet video. Here is a pretty neat book some of you might not have come across yet. http://www.maritime.org/fleetsub/chap1.htm
