German subs got as close as a few miles off the coast of NJ & LI.


Heck yeah, there was a German sub sunk at the mouth of the Potomac

There is one sunk off of Newport which was a scuttle after being
attacked on the surface by the CG and another out by The Dump that is
a confirmed Uboat, but they don't have the documentation on it.

Is that the one the private divers discovered and researched? Show on
PBS
one time about it.



That was off New Jersey.
