  It never ceases to amaze me how something so incredibly complex was mass produced in such a relatively short period of time, and this is just one type of one service in one country.

  can’t help but imagine the sight of water rushing in and the fact that all these pipes and knobs were the last thing many men saw

  Even though they are primitive compared to today, I think WWII submarines are so cool! I also have a lot of respect for how brave the crews had to be, regardless of what side they were on.

  I find the Atlantic War <i>endlessly</i> fascinating. <br><br>The psychological element really intrigues me. How patient the hunt was. Weeks or months out on the open ocean. Boredom and tedium. Long treks, massive storms. Listening for ships, stalking them, plotting torpedo solutions, taking the shot. The hunter then became the hunted. Being hundreds of feet under the surface, hearing the Asdic pings and propellers above, remaining silent, weathering incessant depth charges. Seldom in war is it such a pure pitting of mind, endurance and strategy to deadly consequence as the U-boat necessitated. <br><br>Thanks for the video, this is a treasure to be able to see. One day I hope to visit 995 myself. I’m very glad some U-boats still exist, as they’re a testament to an incredibly fascinating period of history. RIP to all those lost in the Atlantic….on both sides. Regardless of ideology, some truly courageous men.

  Thanks for the walk through. I&apos;m fascinated by the German U-Boats and watching Das Boot every now and then again. I can&apos;t get over the amount of complex machinery on board. A latch or gauge in every direction. Just incredible how these things were built and the men that served aboard. Sad truth that only 25% came back home.

  What I find incredible is that these were designed, built quickly and actually worked. It looks so complicated. I can&apos;t imagine how long it would take now to rebuild any part of it.

  Unbelievable to think of all the resources used to make over 1500 on these submarines. Not to mention back in that time, such a complicated network of stuff with a crew that operated it all some how. Amazing
