u-boat with airplane mounted on it
Date: June 19, 2001 01:35AM

<HTML> Hi,

I\'d like know if anyone has information on a plan by Germany during WWII to send a u-boat with an airplane strapped to it to bomb the refineries on the gulf coast of Texas, USA. I was told that there was an attempt to do this but the u-boat was sunk on it was to carry out it\'s mission. I work at the ExxonMoble Refinery in Baytown, Texas. I know for years we had and may still have storage tank with concrete around them to prevent damage by bombardment. Does anyone have a clue to this tale? Thanks. This is my first time at this site and I am very impressed.</HTML>
