(28 May 1945) German submarines have been surrendering and are being brought into ports around the country. Once in port they are striped of their armaments. A U-boat which had surrendered off Weymouth was brought up the Thames to the heart of London.

Was pretty horrible wasn’t it. I was brought up in the 1950s and can remember how run down everything was. Don’t worry, we coped and are much better off now.

Apparently around Strathfoyle which is close to Lisahally where the U Boats surrendered near Londonderry ,there wasn’t a house that didn’t have a leather mattress , a brass clock or some other fittings that had been given to the locals by the German sailors before they were taken to POW camps the logic being that the U Boats were going to be scuttled anyway so the locals might as well have anything that was of use to them .

70% is the agreed minimum, but 75% is more likely as it was stated 3 of 4 died at sea.

I suggest that for the German submariners, they were just as relieved that the was over and they had survived. More than 75% of them had been lost in the bloodbaths at sea, second only to Bomber Command. It's worth noting, too, that there was animosity but them and their RN captors. Both sides were young men sent out to kill each other by old men at home.

The U-505, captured off Africa in June 1944, was towed to Portsmouth, New Hampshire USA and is now an exhibit at the Science Museum in Chicago. Its capture led to the possession of the latest model of the enigma machine by the code breakers at Bletchley Park.

Не успели немцы настоящие подводные лодки ввести в строй из-за ошибочной (для военного времени) концепции строительства по частям на разных заводах и их последующей сборке. Потому и воевали только на этих "ныряющих" лодках. Если бы к 44-му году начали входить в строй настоящие подводные лодки.. всем бы нам было очень тяжело..

German submarines crews and British and American bomber crews suffered the greatest losses in the war. Those who served in these units had to play Russian roulette. The human losses in both cases were nearly 75 percent. RIP for all brave men, never again war between people who are actually brothers.

yes sad they didnt keep a couple as history pieces, would have been very interesting to visit one, somewhere in the UK . guess they just wanted to remove all the bad memories after the war finished, also believe 100s of warplanes were crushed from both sides, that could have been restored, man they would be worth millions now, oh well thats life,

After the war, nothing was more superfluous than old war material. Scrap metal was more valuable. It didn’t matter if it was their own or captured war material. Everything that was no longer needed was sent in the blast furnaces to create new things ones. It was only in the 1970s and 80s that it became apparent that too much had been removed and thus part of history was erased. But it's normal. Everyone buys a new car after 10 years at the latest and the old one ends up in the scrap. 50 years later you say to yourself; oh, if I had this car today, it would be worth 5 times more today than it cost back then.
