RE: U-166 & answer for Marc Singleton

<HTML>Good analogy Michael. There are also few subtle variations between U-boats that could help narrow down the possibilities and eliminate some of the doubt. These are being studied but the most substantial evidence is exactly as Michael described.


Ok, Marc Singleton asked about the possibility of human remains on the U-166.

Marc,

Sorry I did not see you question and respond sooner. There were and are human remains on U-352, which was sunk off the North Carolina coast, USA. Therefore it could be expected to find human remains on U-166.

No skeletal remains were observed during the ROV survey of U-166, but because the damaged area of the vessel is silted in below the seafloor, we do expect preserved skeletal remains are entombed inside U-166.
