And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

German submarine U-805 in 1945. The US Navy took U-805 on several Victory Visits to ports on the east coast before sinking her.
U-505 is at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. She was captured on the high seas by crews from Daniel V. Gallery's escort carrier task force. The story is exciting if you should take the time to look it up online. Also, Admiral Gallery's books are great reading.
Captain Fatso, his own autobiography which included his time as commander Iceland with his 'palm trees' and DDLM. Steel band as commander in Cuba.... Heck yeah! Stand By To Start Engines..... the man was a genius.
By all means, read his books about taking U-505 and the rest.
