Hi Brian,
S.M. U 35 had a brief encounter with one of the Queenstown Auxiliary Patol trawlers, the "Ina Williams", which, having a 12-pdr. gun, engaged the submarine at very long range. She claimed a hit on the enemy and the Admiralty awarded her 500 Pounds. S.M. U 35 escaped any particular damage and worked successfully till June 17. Then she went home...
S.M. U 34 was operating SW of Lizard till June 4th, then she left this area heading for the SW coast of Ireland where she sunk his next victim on June 7.
Hope this helps.
