There's atleast one documented case of an uboat kaleun shooting himself during an patrol. Cant remember which boat it was or why he did it, but I'm sure someone will post info about it.

EDIT: Peter Zschech of the U-505, shot himself in the control room on October 24, 1943 during an depthcharge attack. Another suspected suicide is the death of Wolgang Lüth who was shot by a sentry after either not responding to the sentry's query on purpose or having failed to answer loud enough for the sentry to hear who he was.
