Reply to comment by Toad32 in TIL sitting U.S. President Harry Truman went for a 440-foot deep ride on captured German submarine U-2513 in 1946 by ElMontolero
This submarine was a lot more advanced then the one shown in Das Boot.
It kinda was the first class of underwater ships, and not just a ship which could hide underwater, and move slowly.
It also inspired the next generation of U.S.Submarines.

>The title suggests that because he didn’t have his clothes he wasn’t able to write his book
That's not right. The title saying "to finish his book he locked his cloths away".
> The word but should be in the title.
Where would you put it?

>This sentence is awful
What about it is awful?
>and nearly incomprehensible.
I don't see what is incomprehensible about it.
I personally would have added one more comma, or split it into multiple sentences.

Reply to comment by AZSnake in TIL that the Film Score for Star Wars was Heavily Inspired By "Gustav Holst - The Planets" from 1918 by HanSolo71
But do the composers usually hear the movie with temp-tracks before they start working?
