they did, there was even one U-boat wich got attacked by a airplane (and shot it down) while the crew was having a swim...
the captain tryed not to give away to much info why they were there... but it turned out they were waiting for a Milchkuh wich was in the area

1 U-boat ace even died by breaking his neck while trying to dive into the sea for a swim.

That would be Rolf Muetzelberg, he dived off the conning tower and landed on one of the saddle tanks. The U-Boat apparntly was drifting sideways a little when he dived off. |
