       Pepper-Mint.... Take notice that it's behind , rather than in front of, the lower flooding vents.  :-\

Billp51d,

I don't know much about u-boats, but i think that the device is in front of the sub ; behind the flooding vents, aligned in 5 rows on U-995 / VII/41...
(clic pic below)

Cheers,
Pepper.

This is a pic from from U-1105. a type VII/41.

I was in the understanding that this picture was miss labelled. I was believing this picture was of the prototype of the Balkon-ger
