When it comes to World War II, most people think about the conflicts overseas. Very rarely do people remember that there were moments when the war was literally at our front step.
About 77 years ago, towards the end of the war in Europe, the last of the Nazi U-boats patrolling Atlantic waters were either sunk or forced to surrender. One of the last battles occurred on May 6, 1945… just 7 nautical miles off the shore of Block Island. This would be known as The Battle of Point Judith.
