<HTML>It’s amazing that just because there are no nice photos from the U.S. Navy or German archives showing U boots operating in an American port then everyone says it never happened. Many ships were sunk within view of the shore and even Werner told of cursing into Chesapeake Bay to lay mines. (not at the entrance but inside) U 166 sat at the entrance of the Mississippi (right outside of the passes, as close as you can get without going in) and debated weather to go in but could not find the channel and found it too shallow. Even made reference that the muddy water and all the debris was great for hiding a periscope. </HTML>
