Thames

Morning All

Just humour me.

Would it have been possible for a u-boat to sail up the Thames to Tower bridge?

I am teaching the Second World War to a class of eleven year olds and I was asked the question. The bright kid who asked compared it to the Twin Towers 9/11 attack - ie it was such an outrageous idea that it might have worked.

What would have prevented it?

Best Wishes
Gary
