Tides of War

Divers have discovered the wartime graves of 58 German submariners on two wrecked submarines off the Yorkshire coast.

For the last ten years, teams of divers have scoured waters off the Yorkshire Coast looking for the last few missing German U-boats from World War I.

Eight of the German submarines were sunk off Yorkshire between 1917 and 1918 and until last summer two remained lost.

But divers Andrew Jackson and Carl Racey uncovered the two wrecks within two days.

Just saw them on the Inside Out programme. They look amazingly intact, just hope the salvage crowd and looters do not find their location. That U-boat archive put together by the bloke in Cuxhaven was very impressive

indeed it is mate, i saw this off the same program.

Didn't they find one off the coast of New Jersey last year? I saw something about it, where they found a knife on the wreck with a last name carved in the handle, and it turned out only one unterseebootsman in the entire service had that last name?
