U-178 Crosses the Line, Meets King Neptune!

Schöneboom · 10-26-08, 07:31 PM

On 31.7.1943, in Planquadrat FG1871, the crew of U-178 celebrated their first crossing of the equator and paid tribute to King Neptune & his court!

It was a revelation to discover how many of my crew were eager to dress up as women!

Mensch, stop looking at me like that!

And we still have a long trip ahead of us! Ay yi yi...
