The German U-Boat Museum has extensive documentation on almost all of the Kriegsmarine's boats in the form of KTBs (war diaries), photos and other documents. Not only are the complete crew and sinking lists available, but also newspaper clippings, records, various letters and notes from former crew members who report on special experiences on board.
