• 
  07:27 - Yesterday I installed a new error-reporting system on the site that will keep me much better informed if any errors take place on the site (bad links etc.). The old method was to manually hunt these down using logfiles and that has worked well, but this is better.

• 
  23:03 - Improve the Conning Tower article section by putting it all in our new articles database.

• 
  21:07 - Added a nice map on the U-boats missing in action page. This new map shows the approximate position for many of the roughly 55 U-boats still listed as missing.

• 
  12:02 - Opened a very interesting addition to the Conning Tower. This one is a large section showing all the Kriegsmarine Crews that trained U-boat Commanders. Then you can see which men were comrades in training and a lot more.



• 
  11:56 - Added a lengthy entry about Heinz Hirsacker to his personal page in the Conning Tower. Clearly one of the more controversial (and in many ways very sad) cases of the U-boat command in WWII.



• 
  10:37 - Edited the page for U-1226 slightly so that she would appear on the U-boats missing in action page where she surely belongs.
