The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim.

― Edsger W. Dijkstra

The sonar ping echoed through the cramped corridors of U-557, a haunting melody in the crushing depths of the North Atlantic. As the submarine’s historian documenting its restoration, I thought I knew every inch of this Type VII U-boat. I was wrong.

Three hundred meters below the surface, I traced my fingers along the cold steel walls, documenting the authentic details of this preserved war machine. The control room stood frozen in time – gauges still marked with their last readings from 1942, periscope bearing the scratches of its final dive.

That’s when I noticed it. Behind the captain’s chart table, a hairline crack in the bulkhead that wasn’t in any of the original blueprints. As I pressed against it, the metal groaned, revealing a hidden compartment that had remained sealed for over 80 years.

The musty air that escaped carried something else – whispers, like distant German voices engaged in frantic conversation. My flashlight beam caught something etched into the compartment’s wall: tallies. Hundreds of them. But the official records showed this U-boat had only claimed twelve vessels before vanishing.

The temperature plummeted. My breath frosted in front of me as the sonar’s ping grew louder, more insistent. In its rhythm, I could almost make out words: “Nicht verlassen… never leave…”

The bulkhead door slammed shut with the sound of twisting metal. In the darkness, I heard the distinct sound of boots on steel decking – coming from a crew compartment that should have been empty.

They never found me, of course. How could they? According to the restoration team’s logs, no one had entered the U-boat that day. But if you listen carefully to the sonar recordings, between the pings, you might hear knocking from within – a desperate morse code message from someone who learned too late that some war machines never truly surrender their secrets.

Or their prisoners.
