There is one in the Deutsche Museum in Munich with a description of the crash dive ditching procedure which included words to the effect that ‚the pilot would then drown in the usual fashion‘.
Regarding conning towers I found the one on HMS Warrior in the Portsmouth Royal Navy museum very interesting. Earlier ships had exposed quarter decks with senior officers being picked off by enemy snipers. The Navy introduced a steel tower to shelter in and this tradition continued and can be seen even in some american battleships. Google USS New Jersey for a you tube film on the subject.
