they did, there was even one U-boat wich got attacked by a airplane (and shot it down) while the crew was having a swim...

the captain tryed not to give away to much info why they were there... but it turned out they were waiting for a Milchkuh wich was in the area

1 U-boat ace even died by breaking his neck while trying to dive into the sea for a swim.

Yah!

That would be Rolf Muetzelberg, he dived off the conning tower and landed on one of the saddle tanks.

The U-Boat apparntly was drifting sideways a little when he dived off.

He always dive in the water jumping from conning tower! His friend "Teddy" Suhren warning him that was a dangerous practice!

I am not sure that he break his neck, I think he hited the saddle tank with his head and died 2 days after!
