Hey, you folks are the best of the best. Yesterday my doctor informed me that I could no longer be certified for on ship UXO, ROV search and survey. I expected that with my cardiac cogestive heart falure. Duh. 63, and I made it this far. So my only joy is now consulting and running my immersions where I can be young again, last time in Germany a colleague slipped me a USB with the German uncut Das Boot - so cool to play on another computer while playing. I have one more deal in the works - diving and surveying a wreck in the Bay of Biscay.

"Grunt and Groan PappyCain Immersion Model Bratlingspulver 'Used Food' Storage Bucket"

A very handy immersion can to stow under your PC desk for those 12hr. depth charging escapes! $12.95 USD plus sales tax.


"Food aboard a U-boat was another interesting topic. At the beginning of a journey, as much food was cramped into every nook and cranny available in the U-boat. This resulted in one of the toilets being filled to capacity with food. They brought the best foods available with them, including fresh meat, sausages, bread loaves, fresh fruits and vegetables, but the small refrigerators meant that food spoilt quickly, especially in the damp environment of a U-boat. Very soon, fresh loaves of bread would sprout white fungi, which the crews promptly nicknamed as Rabbits due to the white fuzzy appearance. By that time, food consisted mainly of canned goods supplemented by a soy based filler called Bratlingspulver. Issued by the military for U-boat crews, the crew unkindly referred to it as diesel food; due to the constant exposure of diesel exhaust that surrounded them.

Even going to the toilet was no simple feat. There was only one toilet available until the food stuffed in the second toilet had been eaten up. With forty to fifty crews sharing the same single toilet, unpleasant emergency situations were sure to occur. The flush system consisted of a hand pump, where the contents of the waste was hand pumped into the ocean after each use. Using the toilet was prohibited when stalking an enemy as it was feared that the noise of clanking metal or floating debris would alert the enemy to the presence of a U-boat."
