I think I remember only a couple of years ago they found a Type VIIC/41 in a U-boat sub pen in France. I think a Type VIIC was laying on top of it. Can anyone remember this?

Can anyone remember this?Not in France all the U-bunkers (Bordeaux, Brest, la Pallice, Keroman, Saint-Nazaire) have been explorated for long.But in Hamburg, yes, the collapsed U-bunker ELBE-II has been searched in 1985 and the exploration team has found ... Four typ XXI !

Hi AllThere a picture of a Type VIIC laying on it side in this article (below). Does anyone know the date and/or the U-boat number? As she looks like that she have a early style balcongerat http://www.geschichtsspuren.de/artikel/42/168-u-boot-bunker-hamburg.html
However, several web sites list U-667 as lost on 25 Aug 1944 So if this is correct, the other boat can not be U-667.
