It´s like there is no water for Aircrafts. All Planes can spott your sub from very far distances (>12km) even when you submerged below 50m. Can someone fix that BUG please???? |

2nd I have no idea about the origin of the eagle in Poland, I do know that Germany was pre WW2 a lot larger than it is now. And I know they didn't take land from the west, north and south thus from the east, yes Poland. 3th of all here is a pic of it. http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bestand...9_physical.jpg IF the Kaleun came from East Prussia then it is very feasable he took his idea for the emblem from that. Lastly the germans didn't care what the polish ppl thought, they where untermenchen, and as such not human. And most important not worth listening to. P.s. I'm trying to state facts and assumptions based on those facts. I do not agree with them! |

It did turn into a political discussion didn't it. That was not my intention, however, Poznan's coat of arms would not make it on a german boat, the same as the swastika would not make it on a British or whatever allied boat.
You simply do not put a national symbol of your bitter enemy on an instrument of war no matter what you think of that enemy. Just doesn't make sense. If you can show me a picture of a German u-boat conning tower with this emblem I'll eat my words |

Been there, done that! More times, in fact, than I care to remember.
What makes for class isn't in the being right, it's in the being wrong. My friend, you exemplify class on the forum!

from the Nav Tools Readme ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why the markings on cursors of ruler/compass are inverted: To tell you angles of the line which you are drawing (north = 0). Click your ship, extend a line, then read the markings. If you get confused about this, use the normal one in "Option-Ruler". |

Alberich is only very late war, plus most boats never got it.
That is the reason I should think |

Hello, sorry for OT,
from one of Lurker's links of U-181, http://www.sharkhunters.com/historya.htm never heard this before. I mean i knew that US ships were supporting England and convoys by attacking U-boats before an official declaration of war, but in 1939 ? The later U-181 crewmember on board the Liner SS Columbus: "The outbreak of World War Two found us in Caribbean waters and after having landed our passengers in Havana Cuba, we were ordered by Berlin to make for Mexico where we hid behind the reefs of Antonio Lizardo. Meanwhile we trained the crew for exercises in scuttling our vessel and in boats maneuvers. The British were waiting but December 1939 we got orders from Berlin to try to run the blockade for Norway and Germany. We got as far as about 200 miles off Baltimore with escorts by US destroyers and the heavy cruiser TUSCALOOSA, which continued to send our position to the British. When the Canadian destroyer HYPERION stopped us with gunfire and when we successfully set our big liner afire and opened the sea valves, the TUSCALOOSAbrought us to Ellis Island from where we were shipped by train to San Francisco, early 1940. " US "neutrality" in 1939 ? Greetings, Catfish |
