THE QUESTION.
What does one call the general area above the upper end of the rudder?
This includes the whole general area both at the upper pivot point and forward and to the rear of this area. It is shown in the first URL below. In the rush to get an operational Seehund into action this upper part was originally made of OAK -- or at least of something like oak.
SOME SEEHUND MATERIAL YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE SEEN.
1. Here are some really good, new fotos of the Seehund at the USS Ling Museum in Hackensack, NJ, USA. This klein-u-boot was recently rebuilt by a large number of volunteer who are well-experienced in the metalworking trades. Prior to this past year it had been rusted out to an embarrassing degree, now it looks really good. This Seehund originally sported a single rudder and then it was upgraded to the double rudder. It was one of twoSeehunds brought to the US for OSS postwar testing and evaluation.

2. While internet surfing I came across this interesting Seehund Diorama.
(But the hatches in the kits used are hinged backwards.)

3. Some French Seehund photos and history.

4. A simple chart/drawing of Seehund operations off of the IJmuiden area. using IJmuiden as a base of operations.

5. Some old information about Seehund and K-verbande awards.
The war ended before these awards could be issued. At best they were only simply typed out on a sheet of paper. Apparently not even the printed form had been made for this award. The war was too near the end and there were more important pieces of paper to process first. In fact, at the end of the war much of the K-verbande paperwork was being quickly burnt and destroyed to prevent the enemy getting it – good military discipline!
