Hi Dan, I hope you are well. Let my rummage through my sources and see if I can find some.

:) Hi Ernest!
That would be great! I am kicking around the idea of a U-505 when commishing. I have one photo of the Boot at that time. Here also is a photo of U-505 when it was badly damaged . I see it had the 10.5cm Deck gun. I am wondering if the 3.7cm on the aft deck was blown up also?
Thanks as always,
Dan

Hi Dan et al
The 3.7cm on the aft deck took the brunt of the explosion and saved the boat from almost certain destruction.

Hi Jon!
That is really something! It is a wonder it even made it back to France!
