<HTML>Did somebody find informations about that particular event : in late March 1941 (or 42 ?), U69 (type VIIC) went back from patrol. IWO Heydeman was then replaced by an other officer : Auffermann who received the instruction to paint on the coning tower of U69 the \"Bull of Scapa Flow\". As nobody was able to give him a drawing of that \"logo\", he tooks a typical french cheese emblen : \"La Vache qui rit\"...
Funny isn\'t it ...</HTML>
