The B17 is about 150 or 160ft down, ................:
I've been to those 3 museums, except the Imperial War Museum was going through renovations at the time, so I guess I'll have to revisit it.

I'm a WW1 and WW2 history buff myself. Another museum I've been to is the Saumur armour museum in France which a great collection. I've also been to places like Normandy of course, Dunkirk, Dieppe, Dresden, Verdun, the Somme, Eben-Emael, Lidice, the Wolf's lair, etc. Today I leave for Crete, another battleground in WW2.

I didn't realize the B17 was that deep. I've done some 'recreational' diving myself and that is definitely deeper than anything we did.
