Re: US tankers refuelling U-boats in 1941.

Hi Tcovin,

The ship in the photo is definitely the Nordmark disguised as an American ship. U-107 was resupplied by Nordmark May 3, 1941 per U-107’s KTB.

This photo has been published a number of times, mostly with the correct caption identifying her as Nordmark however I have found at least one book that incorrectly lists her as an American ship as a result of her disguise.

This has also been discussed here on the forum in the past. Nordmark also used other disguises. See the post at:

Regards,

Ken Dunn
