Paul, have you tried www.uboataces.com? I tried yesterday for mine but it's not easy on a phone, need my PC. Looked like a great site though.

Paul,

The U-Boat you refer to is U-621 which has a sawfish spearing a plane on both sides of the tower and the green octopus on the front. If you download Aces Super Turms V4 this is included in a set of Type 7 emblems that i produced for this mod. There are over 100 historically accurate towers represented but at the moment it is only for version 1 of the tower, if you use version 2,3 or 4 it will not correctly displayed.

Steve.

Apparently under command of this guy,Kruschka,who obviously sounds very German,maybe Polish parents?

Max Kruschka was born 7 May 1919 in Schleswig on Jutland. He died on the fishing vessel Senator Predohl on 12 April 1948.

Did he see much U-Boat action in his life?
