Hey sailors! Haven't been around for a long time, but I ran across this post while looking for some info. Just wanted to let everyone know that the U-480 show aired last night and will air again next week on the National Geographic channel.
Thursday April 30th, 5PM est. http://channel.nationalgeographic.co...-3948/Overview
