Hello all!

Ulrich Leverenz of U.L.A.D decals sent me this information about the history of the U-94 tower art and I thought you would like to read it.

"Often the malings are the result of an competition on board during
missions ( a lot of time and nothing to do)
The LION-maling was under KaLeu Herbert Kuppisch in 1941 on both sides
of the Conning tower.
(Later only the -Bull of Scapa Flow- in front of Conning tower under
commander Otto Ites.)
The LION originated by the II. WO (officer of the watch) of the first
enemy missions.
In difference to the stencil-work "Bull"it was painting of an artist
with good knowlegde in drawing.
The colors are painted in a lot of shapes.
Normaly after an mission the colors are damaged because of the agressiv
salt water. They had often to paint again this malings.

Best Regards
Ulrich Leverenz
