Luftwaffe Air-Sea Rescue Buoy???

Hey soo does anyone have any more info on Luftwaffe air-sea rescue buoys? I remember reading a WW2 book and it mentioned how the German Navy deployed them in the English Channel for Luftwaffe pilots who had to bail out. How could that work in the game? Hmm maybe we could have small side missions that send uboats to rescue to pilots? I saw a picture of one of those bouys that washeh ashore in England and it looked like a Porta potty on top of some floating barrels. then there was a picture of the supplies inside, it had canned water/food, dry clothing, blankets, a raft, flares, pretty much everything a pilot needs to survive at sea. Has anyone ever heard of these? Can they be scripted into the game?

Edited........ i found some great info on the rescue buoy http://www.lonesentry.com/articles/t...scue-buoy.html
