The Hunt For Nazi UBoat 852
Hey Everyone,
For those who don't know, I am apart of a subreddit that seeks to find U Boat 852. A nazi U-Boat that ran aground on the Somali coast.
Long story short, I was reading about Somali history during WW2 when I stumbled across the story of a naval battle off the coast of Somalia. I decided to look into it and ended up writing this post on /r/history that went viral: https://www.reddit.com/r/history/comments/55sqpw/confirmation_i_think_i_found_a_uboat_in_somalia/
As of today, We have confirmed the location of the U-Boat. Now, I need to go to the site.
While I am in Somalia, I may as well be in a different country. Currently, I am in Somaliland while the wreck is located in Puntland. So I need to enter Puntland and then make my way, over land, to the remote fishing village of Bandar Beyla. I hope for this to happen within the next 2 weeks.
While I was initially planning to take up all costs on my own, other users expressed interest in contributing
There is no pressure to donate here. Only donate if you would like to contribute. Below is a breakdown of the major costs.
Car Rental: $60/day (5 days) = $300
Bus from Somaliland to Puntland = $100
Gas and extra costs = $100-150
Security $10 per day x 2 guards (5 days) = $100
Total = 600-650
