From the wire service's report (and not from the fuller, Telegraph report linked above):
Hitler's 'lost fleet' found
Sun News Services
Published: Monday, February 04, 2008
LONDON -- The final resting place of three German U-boats, nicknamed "Hitler's lost fleet'', has been found at the bottom of the Black Sea. The submarines had been carried overland from Germany to attack Russian shipping during the Second World War, but were scuttled as the war neared its end. Now, more than 60 years on, explorers have located the flotilla of three submarines off the coast of Turkey. The submarines have been discovered by a team led by Selcuk Kolay, a Turkish marine engineer, who will present his findings to a shipwreck conference in Plymouth this week. |

They were Type IIB boats built in 1935. Some interesting resources here: link Wyatt |
