(All times are zone -2)

This torpedo exploded close alongside the target. A large column of water with debris of the caique and UJ boat were seen to rise to 300 feet. The targets were not seen thereafter. Unswerving now made off at speed. She was hunted by another patrol vessel that had been in the anchorage. (9)

Unswerving carried only 4 torpedoes. The space for the reload torpedoes was taken by canoes and stores for a raiding party which was to place limped mines on shipping inside Suda Bay if suitable targets were present there but this operation was cancelled later in the patrol as several members of the raiding party were sick (sandfly fever).

For the daily and attack positions of HMS Unswerving during this patrol see the map below.

3 Aug 1944 (position 36.32, 24.16)
HMS Unswerving (T/Lt. M.D. Tattersall, RNVR) is detected on surfacing about 8 nautical miles south-west of Milos. An escort vessel dropped 16 depth charges causing some damage to Unswerving.

(All times are zone -2)
2054 hours - Surfaced in position 36°32'N, 24°16'5"E. Immmediately on arriving on the bridge a small convoy of sailing vessels was sighted. The sighting must have been mutual as the convoy fired series of green flares. Unswerving was silhoutted against a light horizon whereas the enemy had the advantage of the dark background of the land.

2056 hours - Proceeded to withdraw in a southerly direction at full speed with the intention to work round the convoy to obtain a favourable position for gun action.

2104 hours - Dived, as the range by radar was coming round rapidly indicating something of greater speed then Unswerving.

2110 hours - 8 Depth charges were dropped.

2114 hours - 8 More depth charges were dropped. Asdic and hydrophones went out of action.

2145 hours - Returned to periscope depth. Sighted one large caique or escort bearing 180°

2300 hours - Broke off the chase as the range did not seem to be decreasing. (9)

8 Aug 1944 (position 36.28, 24.25)
HMS Unswerving (T/Lt. M.D. Tattersall, RNVR) claims to have damaged what was thought to be an A/S caique with gunfire in the Aegean Sea. In fact the ship engaged was the German auxiliary submarine chaser UJ 2142 that opened fire on Unswerving which then broke off the action.

(All times are zone -2)
0200 hours - In position 36°28'N, 24°25'E sighted a small vessel presumed to be an A/S caique, bearing 360°, range 8 nautical miles. The enemy was patrolling to the south of Paximadi Island. Unswerving started to work round the enemy at full speed to obtain the advantage of the light.

0257 hours - Opened fire from 4800 yards. The enemy immediately opened fire as well with Oerlkons type automatic weapons and a larger calibre gun.

0302 hours - Broke off the action and retired at 14 knots. The enemy meanwhile set course to Milos. (9)

HMS Unswerving (T/Lt. M.D. Tattersall, RNVR) attacks the small German transport Toni (638 BRT, built 1911, former Greek Thalia) with four torpedoes off Milos, Greece. All torpedoes however miss their target although the British thought they have obtained one hit and the ship was sunk. Toni was escorted by the German motor minesweeper R 34.

(All times are zone -2)
0435 hours - In position 36°53'N, 24°19'E sighted a dark shape on the horizon. Closed to investigate.

0443 hours - Sighted an R-boat ahead of the target which by now was seen to be a small merchant vessel. Started attack.

0519 hours - Fired four torpedoes from 1400 yards. The third torpedo broke surface but afterwards ran straight. The tracks of all the others ran true. Went to 150 feet.

0521 hours - A magnificent explosion occured. Presumed to be a hit. [In fact the torpedo had exploded prematurely.]

0526 hours - Heard three more explosions. These were the remaining torpedoes going up at the end of their run.

0534 hours - Three depth charges were dropped but these caused no damage.

0625 hours - Returned to periscope depth. Nothing in sight. (9)

At 0334 hours (zone -2), in position 35°37'N, 24°47'E, HMS Unswerving (T/Lt. M.D. Tattersall, RNVR), sighted a dark object. Shortly afterwards the object had disappeared. This is thought to be a German u-boat. If this was correct this must have been U-565. (9)

6 Sep 1944 (position 35.36, 24.24)
At 0135 hours (zone -2), in position 35°36'N, 24°24'E, HMS Unswerving (T/Lt. M.D. Tattersall, RNVR), again sighted a dark object. 5 Minutes later the object was lost from sight.

3 Oct 1944 (position 39.48, 23.26)
HMS Unswerving (Lt. M.D. Tattersall, RNVR) torpedoed and sank the German tanker Bertha (1810 GRT, built 1922, former French Bacchus) about 10 nautical miles south of the Kassandra peninsula, Greece. Bertha was in convoy together with the German transport Zar Ferdinand (1994 GRT, built 1913). They were escorted by the German torpedo-boat TA 18 and 2 smaller escort vessels GD 97 and GK 92. This convoy was on passage from Piraeus to Saloniki. By the time Unswerving attacked Zar Ferdinand had already been sunk by the French submarine FFS Curie (Lt. P.J. Chailley).

(All times are zone -1)
0035 hours - In position 39°48'5"N, 23°26'5"E sighted two dark shapes bearing 235°, range 10000 yards. Enemy course was 360°, speed 9 knots. This turned out to be Bertha escorted by one destroyer.
