I ran across this site, it’s the Chicago’s Museum of since and industry U-505 virtual tour. I haven’t looked at the whole site just the pics and it looked interesting.

Makes me wish we had kept a few more of those surrendered U-Boats about after the war.

Thanks for the link!

Makes me wish for more modeled compartments, and more dials and switches to fool around with. (Still my big gripe with SH4 - less interactivity with the boat!)

Great link, thanks.

The panoramic movie tour is really cool, imo.

I'm just glad she's inside now. When I toured her, she was still on the old outdoor display. While a superb tour, from the outside you could see how the years outside was taking a toll. Being inside in a nice, properly climate controlled environment is much better for the continued display of such a great piece of history.
