Response to U-Boot Type XXIII Conning tower ID stripe colour?
I've built two of these so far (my favorite type U-Boat) and on the original 1/72nd scale Special Navy the band is white.On the 1/44 scale one from Trumpeteer (there are two and I don't think they are different at all except for boxing)I did not paint a band at all.

From reading some books, my understanding, and i could be wrong, is that if they had a strip of white they were actually training boats.

That's what I read, and I'm sticking to it....
