Summary
[edit]DescriptionU 534 under attack 5 May 1945.jpg |
The German U-boat U 534 a type IXC/40 submarine commanded by Kapitanleutnant Herbert Nollau, ploughs through the water attempting to evade the attack of a Consolidated Liberator "G" of 86 Squadron, RAF Coastal Command. U 534 was earlier attacked by another Liberator which it shot down with no survivors. The submarine was sunk east of Anholt Island, Denmark, after being attacked by Liberator "G" with a total of ten depth charges. This action, for which the captain, Warrant Officer J.D. Nicol, RAF, was awarded a DFC, occurred in a 24 hour period in which five German U-boats were sunk. U534's sinking resulted in three dead and 49 survivors from its crew. They were rescued by lifeboats from a lightship in the vicinity. |
