does anyone remember . . . ?

<HTML>About 25-30 years ago I remember seeing a movie (I\'m sure it was a Hollywood production) about a group of pirates who find and raise a scuttled u-boat (I even remember them finding the skeleton of the skipper with his hat still on!), refurbish it and use it to hold up the Queen Mary.

I know the plot sounds strange, but I was too young at the time to be drinking and I\'m sure I saw it.

Another u-boat related movie I saw many years ago was \"Murphy\'s War\", I think. A survivor from a torpedoed ship (the Mt. Kyle, if I remember) seeks his revenge on the u-boat in various ways, including using homemade bombs dropped from the ship\'s float plane (a U.S. Kingfisher). It was an intersting movie at the time I saw it, but I was only about 10 years old then.

Regards,

Tom</HTML>
