I think you mean U 47, as U 43 never served in the Mediterranean and survived the war.

This brings to mind two questions:

1- What sort of engine trouble did U 47 suffer from that it proved impossible to fix in all that time?

2- Why assign commanders to a U-boat that was unlikely to become operational again?
