Hello there,

Thanks, yes the two could have become confused. However, has anyone here EVER seen a log book as opossed to a KTB and if so what detail does it record. Dives for example. Would it record the time of a dive and how long the u boat remained submerged? and for what reason the dive took place eg the aproach of a British war ship.

regards
