U-995 German or Norwegian

<HTML>Hi

U-995 at Leboe Memorial.

This boat was given to Norway at the end of WW2.
As far as i\'m aware it was returned back to Germany in the 60\'s and became the Memorial in the 70\'s.

So how much of the innards of the boat are still German.
I presume many of the original fittings especially gauges would be changed to Norwegian language and their own specification?

Also presume that the AA arnament would have been stripped by the Norwegians and re added back on by the restorers in Germany?

If anyone has visited the boat i\'d been interested to know how much of the original German fittings remain.

thanx
