Mr. Englund;
Welcome Aboard! Yes the correct name was Naval Advanced Base Bremerhaven 1955-56, CAPT C.W. Moses USN was the base CO.
Please refer to the Al Ross post on the previous page titled :Post-War return of boats by Soviets
Take care,
TED

Fast reply from u Ted. Yes I know Capt. Moses as we came face to face at a Capt. Mast and also for a short time was assigned to his jeep for war games as it had a TCS radio in it. I am also in touch with his son on e-mail. I have 4 pictures of that day in Kiel with him in them along with Russian officers and some of the boats. I am also in one of them along with 4 other white hats but u really can not make me out to well. One of the nine brought back by the German LSU was repaired and I and one other RM was assigned to it for its shake down with Capt. Moses and some other brass on board. Never did find out what happen to it. maybe it went to Brest. That picture of the nine tied up at Columbus Quay was taken by a Air Force guy and posted on his web page of Bremerhaven and a couple of years ago I found this forum and told someone how to get the picture and they did. Do we have 2 post of the 9 boats now????....Later

Robert;
Al's post is the last post on the next page in the general section. Yes, it was from an Air force guy, I think it was an old tripod website. To bad more photos don't exist.
Tale care,
