I noticed what I think might be a “U” boat on that page. Say aren’t “U”
boats a wartime model?

Gary that sure is a “u” boat! But you can’t have a fleet of merchant ships
without a “u” boat to go hunting them. That is like having cowboys with NO
indians or bread without butter! ;)

Maybe its on the same side as the merchant ships. Maybe its a model of the
Danish Navy’s U1.

I think you are correct in that it is a danish submarine.

Still military but not as scary as a Nazi submarine.

German Submarines were not Nazis per say. Yes everyone in the German Armed
Forces during WWII were in the Nazi party per say (not by choice but by default)
but the german sailor was just doing his duty to country and had little
knoweldge of the bad things that the Nazi leaders were doing back on land.
The same was true with most members of the german air force and the regular
german army. It was only those in the SS and active in the Nazi political party
that really should be called such bad word: Nazi.
