PO1 William "Chip" Nagel great read and share. What an epic tale.
“I went under water and I didn’t think I was ever going to come up,” he says. “When I finally came up, I realized that it was so light and that’s how I realized that the sub had surfaced and put floodlights on the sinking ship.”

Also forget about another Travelling option for the Adventurous Traveler. Traveling on a Cargo Ship they always have a few Bunk Rooms available for those that want to try a new experience.

Fantastic. The U-boat attacks were horrific experiences for those on the receiving end.

Not that great for the crew in those Nasty Old Diesel Boats either. Surface Ships that would sink for the Attack. I like Modern Nuke Subs a lot better. The crew doesn't smell near as Nasty and they can stay underwater as long as the food holds out.
