- This incredible story occurred in August 1941 and was a real team effort between the RAF and Royal Navy. Make sure you watch right until the end to discover the "movie within the movie". One of the crew of U-570 came to a particularly sticky end.

Another interesting Aircraft vs Sub story is of Lloyd Trigg, awarded a Victoria Cross based solely on the U-boat captains testimony
The lieutenant was in a no win situation. The sub had already been surrendered when he was placed in temporary command, and any actions he took to attempt an evasion or scuttle her would have been contrary to the rules of war. At that point his duty was to safeguard the crew in accordance with the captains orders. Once in custody he was free of such obligations and it was his duty to attempt to escape, so I can’t fault him there, but he really should have accepted that the first attempt had failed and just gone back into captivity.
That was fascinating. Your research, editing, images, and narration are top tier.
Can you imagine what these Brits would have thought if they knew what would happen to the country they were fighting for? Today crowds of foreigners threaten the ceremony to remember those Brits,unbelievable! We have let them down to our shame.
Many thanks for this great video - my dad was flight engineer on AH530 and I have his log book that ties up with his Catalina relieving the first one on site. They should make a movie about this story - so much intrigue
Vaguely heard of this in a “Warlord” annual.
My uncle was the photograher on the Catalina that escorted the U boat back to Iceland
Great video. I really love your work. The tone is excellent. It’s respectful and honest and not mawkish or that awful voyeuristic carnage seeking crap either. History as it’s supposed to be.
Very well done, well researched and nicely narrated.
Thank you, I really enjoyed your video.
Excellent!!
Very thankless job generally being in coastal command, I've got a lot of respect for those crews who spent hours without seeing a thing
@CalibanRising >>> Great video...👍

Great story.
I believe there is a James Follett Saturday night theatre radio play based on this story..".the U-boat that lost its nerve",was the title, I think
