    Very interesting and entertaining read. Thanks.

    One of my Mom's boyfriends, who served in the Army, near the end of the war, sent her a Kriegsmarine Battleship flag he got from a warehouse near Berlin. I still have it in a drawer. It's the same type I saw on the stern in a picture of the German battleship, Admiral Graf Spee.

    Keep thinking that there must have been a really good set of lights to take that photo at 15,791 feet. Looks more like 100 foot depth with bright sunlight.

    ETA: If there is ever any UFOs found, it will probably be in the deep ocean somewhere, not where they will corrode away whereoxygen is present.

    The sunken Bismarck photo must be some sort of composite or otherwise digitally enhanced one. But I think it is mostly accurate. The turrets were, I believe, held on by gravity alone so that when it went down and rolled over they fell off.
