saw it on sonar and severely damaged it by dropping depth charges.The
Germans, forced to surface, manned their deck guns while another escort
vessel, the USS Gandy, returned fire and rammed the U-boat. The third
escort, the USS Peterson, then hit the U-boat with two more depth
charges. The crew abandoned the submarine, but not before setting off explosions
to scuttle it. The submarine hadn't been seen again until Monday.The U-550
is one of several World War II-era German U-boats that have been
discovered off the U.S. coast, but it's the only one that went
down in that area, Mazraani said. He said it's been tough to
find largely because military positioning of the battle was imprecise, and
searchers had only a general idea where the submarine was when it
sank. Kozak noted that the site is far offshore and has only
limited windows of good weather.The team towed a side-scan sonar vessel
in a mow-the-lawn pattern over the search area and found the U-500
after covering 100 square miles of ocean, between the trip this year
and last year, Kozak said.Just the nose of U-boat was visible on
sonar on the first pass, but the team was delirious after the
second pass. when the sonar image made it obvious they'd found it,
Mazraani said. Quick dives to the wreck to beat bad weather confirmed
the find with pictures.The other team members were Steve Gatto, Tom Packer,
Brad Sheard, Eric Takakjian and Anthony Te
