U-232 was commissioned 28 Nov 1942 by Kptlt. Ernst Ziehm and sunk (all hands) by a Liberator aircraft of 2nd Sqdn Anti-Submarine USAAF/Q on 8 July, 1943.

2nd Squadron was the first US Army Air Force anti-submarine squadron to be deployed to Europe, reaching RAF St.Ivel by mid-January, 1943, for training with "Coastal Command". By early, March, 1943, redeployed to French Morocco where it operated for most of the rest of 1943, chiefly patrolling Gibraltar and approaches, and up to Cape Finisterre and south to about the Canaries and west to near the Azores.
