I changed this U-Boat's fate on 13 July 2011 from 'scuttled' to 'bombed'. I have since found a new source (U-Boats Destroyed), which gives her fate as 'scuttled'. That makes the score: 'scuttled' 2 'bombed' 1. Therefore I have changed it back to 'scuttled'. RASAM (talk) 20:00, 23 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

This article, for much of its content, relies on Herbert Werner's book Iron Coffins: It is also different stylistically from other U-boat articles.
This book has been subject of discussion on the Werner article talk page and at MILHIST: For the reasons given there, it cannot be accepted as a reliable source for historical fact, though as a personal memoir it is a useful insight into the thoughts and opinions of a German U-boat officer of the time.
I have therefore re-written the article, to match the style of other, similar, articles, and confined the content to information that can be substantiated by other, more acceptable, sources. Xyl 54 (talk) 21:11, 26 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
