<HTML>Nastravia(?) Yuri - yes there was a camel taken from Egypt to the U-boats home port. The poor beast had a rope tied around it and the U-boat moved off draging the camel into the water - the boat then submerged and surfaced under the animal and sailed back home with it on the after deck.
A similar thing happened in the 2nd WW with a cow - but I believe that was intended for food.
Good to see you again - I hope all is well with you!
