On 17 September 1939 the British aircraft carrier HMS Courageous was torpedoed off the Hebrides by U-29 commanded by Kapitänleutnant Otto Schubart.

U-47 back in Kiel Harbour, 10 days after the Scapa Flow raid. Korvetten kapitän Prien stands in the left side of the conning tower.

Commanded by Kapitänleutnant Otto Schubart, U-29 sails back to Wilhemshaven in November 1939.

U-10, a type II-B in Wilhemshaven harbour in winter 1939. The ship was then commanded by O. L. Günther Lorentz.

A type VII in a dry dock at Brest. The silhouette of the VII was practically identical to that of their World War I elders.

Fritz Julius Lemp´s U-30 sails into the harbour of Lorient 7 July 1940.

U-65 was the first German submarine to sail into Brest harbour in August 1940.

November 1940: U-69, a type VII-C commanded by Kapitänleutnant Metzler, is about to leave for another mission. The picture was taken in Saint-Nazaire harbour a few days before the ship departed. She was sunk on 17 February 1943 by the British destroyer HMS Viscount.
