Framed Print of U-570, a type VIIC submarine, bow down off Iceland, with her crew assembled
U-570, a type VIIC submarine, bow down off Iceland, with her crew assembled on the conning tower holding a white board as a symbol of surrender. U-570 was attacked on the surface by a Lockheed Hudson of No. 269 Squadron RAF at 10.50 am on 27 August 1941. She was too badly damaged to dive and surrendered shortly afterwards. At 1.45 pm the Hudson was relieved by a Consolidated Catalina of No. 209 Squadron RAF which shadowed the U-boat until being itself relieved by another Catalina at 5.45 pm. Shortly after 9 pm, U-570 was taken in tow by trawlers accompanied by Royal Naval destroyers, and was eventually beached on the Icelandic coast. She was later salvaged and became HM Submarine GRAPH. This photograph of U-570 was taken from the first Catalina on relieving the Hudson in the afternoon, and also shows a 450-lb depth charge carries under the port wing of the aircraft. This was AH533, piloted by Flight Lieutenant E A Jewiss and crew, who had themselves sunk another type VIIC, U-452, two days earlier. 27 August 1941. © Mirrorpix
