During the Battle of Norway the U-64 was attacked and sunk on April 13, 1940 while at anchor near Narvik. A Swordfish from HMS Warspite bombed the boat who's crew happened to be on board. Thirty eight men managed to escape from the sunken boat while eight were killed. U-64 was raised in 1957, however she sank again, this time while being towed to the breakers yard, to the best of my knowledge the wreck is still there. |
