Maybe we can steal it from their harbours - if we use our small subs..
or use their uniforms and good nerves.. or for the americans - shoot
them down.

I have seen the film.. complety bullsh.., many fiction no sience -
maybe the book is better.., in the film they raised the sub in the way

About 100 - pictured and countered - I have here the uncomplete

for a book "Museums-submarines of the world, including midget" with
over 140 of it. Work on this several years. But stop working because of

more up to date... see pages like www.webtagon/submarines
