Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill: Think Things Are Bad Now....What about World War II

OK, things look REALLY BAD right now in the Gulf. BP failed with it's "juice box" containment chamber (ice in the cold of the deep ocean - who knew??). The gusher keeps pumping, and the muck is hitting the shores. Looks bad....but, one thing to be thankful for - no enemy submarines!

It has happened before right off of New Orleans in the Gulf of Mexico. Read this fascinating story about German U-boats active in the Gulf of Mexico in World War II.
