Attacks on U-135 during this patrol
8 Feb 1943
At 14.45 hours, the boat was attacked by British Liberator aircraft (RAF Sqdn 120 / K, pilot Bryan W. Turnbull) with 4 bombs near convoy SC-118. The Germans were surprised, fought off the first attack and then dived. Most damages were repaired by the crew and the boat continued its patrol, but later they found leaks from this attack that forced them to return to base on 28 February. (Sources: Rohwer/Ritschel)
