Hi all-
I've posted many questions on this forum as well as helped out by answering some. But my question today is about U-505. I've read in a few different books that after the capture of the boat, and before it went to the muesum of science it was displayed and brought to many ports around the country. I know one port was boston and another was portland maine. I've actually seen the notice in old newspapers ( portand press) -announcing the ship in port in the local paper. But unfortunatly I didn't write down the date so now i'm trying to once again look for that article. i just fiqured that someone out there may know a date to help me better the search. Thanks for your help.
