“Happiness? A good cigar, a good meal, a good cigar and a good woman – or a bad woman; it depends on how much happiness you can handle.” – George Burns

Kapitänleutnant Friedrich-Karl Marks' Type VIIC U-Boot 376 (left) of the Kriegsmarine 11th Flottilla, Crew 34.
Pictured here with her younger sister, U-1161, in Narvik, Norway, July 1942.
Captain and crew of 47 MIA since reachinh Biscay 7 April, 1943. No explanation exists as to its' disappearance.
The boat was outbound for a special mission code-named "Elster" to take on German Naval officers who escaped from a POW camp at North Point on Prince Edward Island, Canada. Serious research strongly indicates that this boat was sunk while outbound in the Bay of Biscay. There are many who believe she was sunk on 7 May, 1943 off Prince Edward Island and is there in very shallow waters, regularly snagging nets of local fishing vessels. The boat failed to sent the mandatory radio signal to report that she had successfully left the Bay of Biscay and must therefore be assumed lost in the Bay to unknown causes.
I love this game. Gives me a chance to brush up on my history.

At any given time the urge to sing "In The Jungle" is just a whim away... A whim away... A whim away...
