U-879 or U-548
Posted by: RCraig ()
Date: November 26, 2017 11:54PM

I am hoping someone might help me understand which uboat was sunk 29-30 April 1945 in the North Atlantic by the USS Natchez, Coffmann, Bostwick and Thomas.

If I consult [uboat.net] the uboat is referred to as U-879.

However if I consult [www.history.navy.mil] (3rd to last paragraph) the uboat is referred to as U-548.

Is there something I am missing here?
Thanks if anyone can give me any clues.
