<HTML> Hello everyone,
I have seen the pictures and read about the Wilhelm Bauer Type XXI on display in germany. What I didn\'t realize is this was the sub the post WWII german navy salvaged that had been scuttled in 1945 and raised in 1957. Does anybody have any info on what shape it was in after being sunk in salt water for 12 years? Was this the only way the German navy could get going again? You would have thought there allies could have helped out some. Rick
