Guys,

I was looking over the amazing photo's of U-778 on Innes McCarthy's FB page [www.facebook.com]

Maybe the photos's didn't show it but I wondering about the lack of any winter garden for AA gun placements. Was this a feature on some late war VIIC's? I thought by '44/'45 large wintergardens were standard? I'm sure someone will put me right.
