Its a grave to be respected.
Dive and look but dont disturb the grave
Most divers are very ethical of not disturbing any remains regardles of what side the sailor was on.

I get that and I have no doubt that proper respect will be shown, but to allow Deutschland to claim the wreck as their property is too much.
The mind hungers for that on which it feeds.

Are you kidding me? A Nazi sub sunk in 1942, 35 miles off the US coast? The Germans can pound sand. What to you suppose its mission was?


Easy. To sink any target of value and tie up a port.

The scan revealed a submarine that is mysteriously intact. There appears to be no battle damage and no damage from a hard impact with the bottom, as in an uncontrolled sinking, Hoyt said.

That suggests that the boat might have submerged to the bottom intentionally to play possum and then couldn’t surface again; or it might have had some mechanical problem or unseen damage.


Although I always thought subs were cool as a kid, the idea of getting stuck underwater and dying is not one of my favorites for kicking off.

Seems like it would be higher than 1/3. I consider a tax credit for children government assistance.


I think those of us who choose to not have children should get a tax credit

The children of all those illegal immigrants,

Not necessarily your kids but if nobody has kids (or immigrants to the country) then your country ends when the last person dies. The working portion of the population has to care for the not working portion of the population. Even if you have all the money you need who are you going hire? Who is going to serve you at the store? Who is going to pay you at the casino?
