What I do know.
It was a Nazi U-Boat.
It was sunk.
It was found.
Everyone on that U-Boat is dead for a long time now.
They were found and now a proper place as to where they rest is known.

I salute them for doing thier Duty no matter what they believed in at that moment in time.

Maybe some were Nazi. They died for what they believed in.

I can only hope I am remembered in such a way.

I honestly don't know why people get butthurt when a Uboat is called a "Nazi submarine".

Every sub theater has its fans, I understand this more then most. In the case of WW2 german subs, the facts are very clear.

- The flag flown from rear of the conning tower while in port was what?
- Said flag was a variation of the national flag of the day.
- Said U boats were part of the Kreigsmarine. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kriegsmarine )
- Said Uboat was NOT part of the Bundesmarine. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Navy )

To say it was a Nazi submarine, IS historically accurate, but as mentioned, it does not mean every man on board was a card carrying member of the Nazi party. And i'm sure after 12 pages, I am completely off topic, but I thought id toss in my 2 cents for the hell of it.
