Stürmer (26 Jan 1944 - 3 Feb 1944)
Igel 1
(3 Feb 1944 - 10 Feb 1944) One warship sunk one cargo vessel damaged. BOTH U-666 and U 384 participated in wolfpck Stürmer and so crossed paths...Briefly! For the amount of Marks spent on 2 Boats, training and 98 men lost, a poor return on investment. Wolfpack Stürmer, consisting of 19 boats, accounted for 10 ships sunk (60,364 tons) and 3 ships damaged (18,216 tons). U-384 sank one and U-666 damaged one. On 19 March 1943, after damaging the Greek freighter Carras, a B-17 Flying Fortress bomber from No. 220 Squadron RAF hit the boat with four depth charges, causing sufficient damage as to force her to return to France. Only U 384 was lost; oddly in the same general area as U-666, later, west of Ireland; both to air attacks..
You can`t hunt together with U 666 and except a "good luck". Satan has its own finger there
