Cool, a subsim meeting in Europe, I'll be there!
Already looking up air fares, and my wife allows me to go - but only if I buy her Danish wool - know any stores there? :rotfl:

I'll be attending for sure. It's just a matter of selecting which beach to land on.

A day early, Jason, arriving on the morning of the 16th. My plans are still under development, I have not bought a ticket yet so we can coordinate this over the next few weeks. Laboe, and the U-995: the last survivng Type VII U-boat in the world (worth talking about).

Well anyways, if I should be able to make it, I'm gonna swing by Laboe for the memorial/U-995 and Bremerhaven, for U-2540. Either on my way up or back. |

Although Wolfgang Peterson kept referring to the U-505 as a Type VII all throught the Das Boot director's commentary, I'm pretty sure it is a Type IX.
Are you German, Thomen? Would it make more sense for me to fly in to Hamburg, take a car to Kiel, then on to Copenhagen?

EDIT: Indeed, 505 was type IX http://www.uboat.net/boats/u505.htm Havent watch the commentary yet, so can't comment on what he says. EDIT 2: If possible, see if you can get a ticket for either to Hamburg and back through Copenhagen, or into Hamburg and Copenhagen for the flight back. That ought to be the best solution, but the Airlines really do not like stuff like that. |

Neal, I'm no German (Or Dane), but wouldn't it be better to take a boat to Copenhagen? Or a direct plane flight?
