<HTML>The most U-boat sank with all hands, so the most fates are only speculations.
For example an U-boat was posted missing in a certain area and an Allied aircraft reported an attack in this area. So it was assumed by the post-war researchers that the U-boat was lost in this attack, but this has not to be the case.
This was the case by the story about U-869 and it is possible that U-602 is lying near Ibiza, but if someone says that the whole crew survived and stayed on the island.. that's suspicious.
For me the story sounds like Nazi U-boats in Argentinia or Antarctica.. or someone found a type XI somewhere
Remember the Hitler diarys and be careful in believing such things.</HTML>
