The USCG bark Eagle was a pre WWII German Navy training vessel. Still serving in the same capacity today.

Dang!  I was stationed in Sarajevo, BiH in the late 1990's for 7 months and drove up to Tuzla generally 3-4 times a month.  Wish I'd known about the repair depot back then, because I could have scoped it out and then impressed the hell out of my boss, as well as occasional visiting guests that I gave impromptu tours to, by taking them on a "show & tell" tour.   Helping get the Bosnian railway system back up & running after their war was one of our unit's responsibilities/projects, but it was centered on more modern engines & equipment.  This would have been a treat for everyone.
