LEGO Minifig Scale Type VII C U-boat U 96 MOC with Interior

The Type VII C U-boat U-96 was used by the Kriegsmarine during World War II. U-96 was part of the 7th U-boat Flotilla and conducted 11 patrols between 1940 and 1943. During the 7th patrol, war correspondent Lothar-Günther Buchheim accompanied U-96. After the war, he wrote the novel “Das Boot” and in 1981, a film with the same title was released. Among other, I used pictures of U 995 (Type VII C/41 U-boat, today a museum ship, ) as reference for the interior of the U-boat. The proportions and the shape of the hull were derived from blue prints. Music: Erzherzog-Albrecht-Marsch
