Shawn, did you ever speak to the former owners of U-534? We're building a new U-534 museum and in our sister museum (Western Approaches) we've got a memorial for Canadian forces who served in the Battle Of The Atlantic. Telling Roderick's story would be great since it really shows the cost on both sides.

@@howtofixauboat I have never spoke with the former owners and I wish my grandfather was still around to hear about new discoveries. The George Cross is currently located in the Ottawa War Museum. We have some documentation and a few books about the story, Borden’s story will be included in a new book currently being written by a lady in England. Our hometown airport has been named after him as well as the 155 Borden Gray Air Cadets Squadron.

Instead of preserving the boat in one piece they went and cut it up into 4 sections in Liverpool. It should never have gone to Liverpool in that case. It was left to rust in Birkenhead Maritime museum. They never had any intentions of preserving it. It should've remained in Denmark.

One of the best, if not the best U-boat restorations and historical displays is the U505 at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, Il. I grew up south of Chicago and have been to the museum dozens of times thru the years and seen it when it was an outside display next to Lake Michigan. Now its all restored and inside a climate controlled building and it is absolutely amazing. I'm looking forward to seeing it again, and again... it will be around a lot longer than I will.

I can remember visiting Wallasey docks, seeing this very impressive U- Boat towering almost into the main road, as it was so long, and took up so much room. A few years later, as to allow disabled access, when it became a museum exhibit, they cut it into separate pieces. They should have left it on the seabed.
@stottybox31853 жыл бұрын
That is correct, i went on the tour of the boat years ago, i think all the exhibits at the museum were scrapped, including hms bronnington the mine sweeper commanded by prince charles in his navy days. The idea was that it could be welded back together in sections much like the way modern ships are made nowadays, just which someone would transport it back to the u boat pens and do just that.

@patrickgardner22042 жыл бұрын
Don't listen to this guy. Yes, it was cut into 3 pieces, but not bc of disabled avcess, when the museum that had housed the boat went bankrupt, the boat was going to be scrapped all together, but another museum managed to pull enough money to house it, but they didn't have the kind of money and resources to ship the whole thing to its new location in 1 piece, so they cut it up for ease of moving. It's still sad it was cut up, but there's no need to go and make up reasons

+Ben Sintes: Reminders of the war like this are a very touchy subject in Germany. Less the matter that they lost the war, more the issues surrounding the atrocities committed by the Nazi party.
