<HTML>Hi Ludovic & others
O.k then, so this sub was seized by the British in Plymouth in July 1940, she
was operated by the Free French naval crew on several Atlantic patrols.
In December 1941 the boat, in company with three French corvettes was involved in the seizure of the Vichy French islands of St Pierre & Miquelon in the St Lawrence estuary on Canada's eastern seaboard. Is this true?
There are many rumours flying around lately on the forum about this boat.
Cheers, Joe</HTML>
