Dennis,

Yeah, that would be nice. Unfortunately, documentation of what pieces ended up on which boat just isn't know to exist. Some documents simply were discarded at some point along the way, others were destroyed during WWII. And to take it even a step further, we're not even completely sure what ended up happening to all of the surrendered U-boats.

In fact it's an issue even for WWI British submarines, as I've come to find out from being involved in efforts to identify RN submarine wrecks of that era. Divers have supplied me with part numbers and there too I have nothing to match them up against in British archives.

Best wishes,
Michael
