RE: U-166 & answer for Marc Singleton

<HTML>I\'m of mixed feelings about the idea of raising U-166, or any sunken warship, or recovering their crew. Yes, it would be nice to return the bodies to their families and native soil. But too, I think it appropriate to let them continue their \"Eternal Patrol\" with their comrades. The recent raising of CSS Hunley is being handled an a compromise fashion. The remains recovered from her are to be intered, with full military honors, as a crew in a plot that is already the resting place of members of two of Hunley\'s other crews. (She sank twice in training, taking one full and one partial crew with her.) tjk</HTML>
