Lost U-Boats of WWII (2024) is a History Channel television series. It explores potential Nazi submarine wreck sites near the Dominican Republic, which harbored Nazis.[1] The search is led by diver Darrell Miklos, whose father (Roger Miklos) also dove for U-boats, utilizing a recently disclosed map of U-boat sightings from a United States Navy pilot.[2]
The sites, located near Montecristi, are explored for evidence of (potentially modified) U-boats, ostensibly having been scuttled after shuttling Nazis and their loot to South America.[2] At one magnetically detected site, Nazi military debris was found, but the hull was not discovered—presumably obscured by the sea floor or coral. It is hypothesized that an unknown vessel crash dove to evade a skirmish with the Allies, possibly aligning with Roger Miklos's alleged discovery of a U-boat in an underwater cave. Further diving was suspended due to the seasonal onset of hurricanes.
