The submarine is coming (part 3)
Look, you landlubbers ... here we come!
It was Thursday, 11 May, when U17, pushed by the push boat PIETER Van der Wees, set off for Nijmegen at six in the morning. Always on board were the two former submariners and members of the "Verband Deutscher Ubootfahrere e.V." Jürgen Weber and Jörg Wiest. The gentlemen were always available to answer questions from the press and interested parties.
And with the help of the GPS tracker on board, the fans always knew where U17 was at any given time.

We travelled past the industrial heritage at around 10 km/h ...
