Hi Rytis! How are you? That was a good site, nice pictures! I especially liked the “Then and Now” section. I tried to convert to english but it wouldn’t work, I don’t know if I was doing it wrong, but don’t think so. Maybe you could have the Administrators check that out. Thanks for posting!:slight_smile:

I think the English option will only display stuff that is built in as the site framework, in English.

Best and Warm Regards

In 1945, S-130 was taken as a British war prize ( FPB 5030) and put to use in covert operations. Under the guise of the “British Baltic Fishery Protection Service”, the British Secret Intelligence Service MI 6 ferried spies and agents into Eastern Europe. Beginning in May 1949, MI 6 used S-208, (Kommandant Hans-Helmut Klose) to insert agents into Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Poland. The operations were very successful and continued under a more permanent organisation based in Hamburg. In 1952, S-130 joined the operation and the mission was enlarged to include signal intelligence (SIGINT) equipment. In 1954/55, S-130 and S-208 were replaced by a new generation of German S-boote.
