U-boat Pens

Next Wednesday night 10:00 pm (July 24) on the PBS channel there will be a program that will be examining the concrete submarine pens built by the Germans to protect their U-boat from Allied bombers. If you miss on Wednesday night it will be on again on the following Friday night at 11:00pm on the same channel.

It is a series about the military hardware and technology created by the German that opened with a look at the Atlantic Wall, which was a series of coastal fortifications built along the Western European to protect against an Allied invasion.

On Wednesday (July 31) the program will be examining the first long range rocket, the V-2, including how it laid the foundation for the space race, again on PBS.

You will have to check to see what channel PBS comes on in your area. I live in Florida so its on channel 2 and 16.
