2019_01_12 Wreckage sighted on beach In Northern France
[edit]

Fox News is reporting that the wreckage has shown up on a beach in Northern France and "The UC-16 ran aground on the shores of Wissant, France in July 1917 due to heavy fog, and was flooded by the crew so it couldn't be used by Allied forces. Over time, wind and sand thoroughly buried the abandoned vessel beneath the ocean water. Now, two large portions of the rusted structure have become visible to residents and tourists just 330 feet from the shore, and has become somewhat of a local attraction." The locals have been aware of the wreck for quite a while, it shows up periodically with changing weather and tide conditions.[1] Nolween (talk) 19:30, 12 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
