Since I can see Italian destoyers firing at British aircrafts I guess it is either Lampedusa or Panteleria since they were known bases of the Italian Fleet and always a target for RAF.

Not a bad guess, but not right......yet.

Ok then.
I have done only two patrols in the Med and I had stayed well away from any port.
If we are talking for an Italian Fleet base my second guess is either Taranto (though it was abandoned after the succesful FAA air raid) or - long shot - the Greek island of Rhodes.

No sir, but you're close to your history, and knowledge of the med.

Have frau! difficult to distinguish between options, then French and Italian flags on the boats, which form part of the thread

Ok. Last guess.
If I see correctly there are sub pens in one of your pictures.
Then is it the island of Leros in the Aegean sea, from where the Delfino (Com, J.Aicardi) set off on August 15 1940 to sink the Greek passenger ships in Tinos harbor?
They failed , as the result was the sinking of RHS Helli (CL).

If this not this then it is the fictional island of Keros and the Guns of Navarone!!!!
