Decking on U boats
Posted by: Davenz ()

Hello all

I am wondering if any of the U boats had wooden decking on the tops of their hulls.

I ask this as I have seen some pictures where it looks like the decking is wooden planking.

I thought that the decks of U boats were made from steel and in most pictures this seems to be the case.


Can anybody shed some light on this subject for me please?

excuse me if I have not used the correct technical terms!

many thanks

Dave
