| 1. | Galatea (GT, N.71) | 7 Jun 1942 | 1805 | Portolago (Leros) | 18 Jun 1942 | 0826 | Portolago (Leros) | 841 | Patrolled north of Ras Uleima, between 32°20'N and 33°00'N, and between 26°00'E and 26°40'E. On the night of 12 June, she was moved 40 miles south between 32°20'N and the Libyan coast and 26°00'E and 26°40'E. Early return because of cumulative defects. | |
| 10 Jun 1942 | 0505 | 32° 00'N, 26° 00'E (0) Approximately. | At 0505 hours, an aircraft was sighted at 3-4,000 metres. Galatea crash-dived and at 0507 hours heard five fairly distant explosions (about 300-500 meters). | |||||||
| 14 Jun 1942 | 0131 | 31° 55'N, 26° 23'E | At 0131 hours, a destroyer was sighted at 1,000-1,300 metres steering straight toward Galatea. The submarine crash-dived and the destroyer passed over her when she was at a depth of 30 meters but without dropping any depth charge. | |||||||
| 14 Jun 1942 | 0320 | 31° 55'N, 26° 24'E | At 0320 hours, two destroyers were sighted at 4-5,000 metres. Five minutes later, Galatea dived and heard depth charges. | |||||||
| 16 Jun 1942 | 0555 | 32° 00'N, 26° 00'E (0) Approximately. | At 0555 hours, an aircraft surprised the submarine by dropping three small bombs. They missed by about 200 metres and Galatea dived. | |||||||
| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 6 Jul 1942 | 0702 | Portolago (Leros) | 6 Jul 1942 | 1302 | Portolago (Leros) | 23 | Trials. | ||
| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 13 Jul 1942 | 1650 | Portolago (Leros) | 18 Jul 1942 | 1710 | Pola | 1142 | Passage Portolago-Pola. (11th July: ULTRA reported her to be sailing on 13th July for passage Leros to Pola). | ||
| 14 Jul 1942 | 1000 | 34° 28'N, 25° 54'E | At 0555 hours, a sailing vessel was sighted at 10,000 metres. At 1000 hours, it was stopped with a warning shot and the crew quickly abandoned it in a small boat. However, it was a Greek caique carrying stores to North Africa and two Germans were on board. Galatea turned away. | |||||||
| 16 Jul 1942 | 2008 | At 2008, the submarine Narvalo was sighted at a distance of 12,000 metres. | ||||||||
| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 21 Jul 1942 | 0616 | Pola | 21 Jul 1942 | 1236 | Monfalcone | 70 | Passage Pola-Monfalcone for long refit. | ||
| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 24 Oct 1942 | 0855 | Monfalcone | 24 Oct 1942 | 1844 | Monfalcone | 50 | Trials. | ||
| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 26 Oct 1942 | 0742 | Monfalcone | 26 Oct 1942 | 1404 | Venice | 59,2 | Passage Monfalcone-Venice to collect four G7e torpedoes. | ||

| 10 Nov 1942 | 1534 (e) | At 1534 hours, the submarine HMS P 43 (Lieutenant A.C. Halliday, RN) sighted an Italian submarine steering 260°. At 1555 hours, the British submarine had closed to 3,200 yards but the attack failed due to a defective gyro compass. This was most certainly Galatea transferring from Pola to Cagliari. She did not notice the British submarine. | ||||||||
| 2. | Galatea (GT, N.71) | 13 Nov 1942 | 2210 | Cagliari | 22 Nov 1942 | 0720 | Cagliari | 1085 | Patrolled near Philippeville in Italian Grid 1124, between 37°20'N and 37°40'N, and between 07°40'E and 08°00'E. On the night of 16 November, patrol was shifted to an area between 37°40'N and 38°00'N, and between 07°40'E and 08°00'E. On the night of 20 November, patrol was again shifted to an area between 37°00'N and 37°20'N, and between 06°40'E and 07°00'E. | |
| 14 Nov 1942 | 0900 | At 0900 hours, an Italian aircraft was seen and exchanged recognition signals with Galatea. | ||||||||
| 15 Nov 1942 | 0452 | At 0452 hours, an aircraft dropped flares forcing Galatea to submerge. | ||||||||
| 15 Nov 1942 | 1930 | At 1930 hours, following signals from the submarines Argento and Velella reporting an enemy naval formation, Galatea proceeded at full speed toward Cape de Fer. | ||||||||
| 15 Nov 1942 | 2010 | 2010 Hours, a submarine was sighted. Galatea closed and recognised it to be Italian. | ||||||||
| 15 Nov 1942 | 2331 | 37° 08'N, 7° 02'E | At 2331 hours, two small vessels, corvettes or minesweepers, were sighted at 6,000 metres. Galatea moved to attack but they moved out of range. | |||||||
| 16 Nov 1942 | 0037 | At 0037 hours, an unknown submarine was sighted. Galatea turned away. | ||||||||
| 21 Nov 1942 | 0208 | 37° 02'N, 6° 51'E | At 0140 hours, an 8,000-ton steamer lead by a 1,500-ton destroyer were sighted at a distance of 8,000 metres. Galatea closed on the surface. At 0208 hours, four torpedoes were fired from a distance of 2,000 metres aimed at the freighter. She was zigzagging at 10 knots while the destroyer had already crossed ahead of Galatea and was now at 4,500 metres from the submarine. Two of the torpedoes porpoised but Galatea was forced to crash dive at 0213 hours as the destroyer was now turning toward her. At 0217 hours, three depth-charges exploded, followed by two more at 0220 hours, but although close they caused no damage. The torpedoes appeared to have missed. | |||||||

| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 30 Nov 1942 | 0753 | Cagliari | 30 Nov 1942 | 1200 | Cagliari | 22 | Trials and exercises. | ||
| 3. | Galatea (GT, N.71) | 2 Dec 1942 | 1910 | Cagliari | 9 Dec 1942 | 2210 | Cagliari | 1128,8 | Patrolled off Algerian coast, between 37°00'N and 37°20'N, and between 07°20'E and 07°40'E (Grid 3524) [or 37°20'N and 37°40'N, and between 08°40'E and 09°00'E]. The patrol rapport is lost. | |
| 4 Dec 1942 | 2026 1939 (e) | 37° 51'N, 8° 20'E | At 2026 hours, Galatea reported sighting three torpedo boats. These were probably part of Force Q (the light cruisers HMS Aurora and HMS Argonaut and the destroyers HMS Eskimo and HMS Tartar). She was probably the submarine sighted by HMS Eskimo at this time. | |||||||
| 9 Dec 1942 | 2145 approx. | (0) Near Cagliari. | At about 2145 hours, the submarine Turchese, who was leaving for patrol, was encountered and exchanged recognition signals. | |||||||
| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 14 Dec 1942 | 0141 | Cagliari | 15 Dec 1942 | 0016 | Cagliari | 92,3 | Trials. | ||
| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 20 Dec 1942 | 1500 | Cagliari | 22 Dec 1942 | 1710 | Augusta | 470,01 | Passage Cagliari-Augusta via coastal route until Cavoli Island, hence to Point 4 (40°10'N, 11°40'E) and Point 5 (40°10'N, 14°00'E) and Point M. The transfer report is lost. | ||
| 20 Dec 1942 | 1818 1812.5 (e) | (0) 095° - Serpentara Lt - 3 to 4 miles. | The transfer report being lost, this is reconstructed solely based on British documents. At 1802 hours, the submarine HMS P 228 (later known as HMS Splendid, Lieutenant I.L. Mackay McGeogh, RN) was patrolling off Cagliari when a U-boat was sighted at 4,000 yards, steering 140° at 15 knots. She closed underwater at full speed and fired one torpedo at 1812.5 hours, from a distance of 2,000 yards. It missed. The target was Galatea. We only know that she sighted the enemy submarine. | |||||||
| 4. | Galatea (GT, N.71) | 24 Dec 1942 | 1200 | Augusta | 7 Jan 1943 | 1230 | Portolago (Leros) | 1496 | Patrolled off Cyrenaica, between 34°00'N and Libyan coast, and between 21°00'E and 21°30'E. Uneventful. | |
| 31 Dec 1942 | 1413 | At 1413 hours, the submarines Galatea, Aradam and Mameli were informed that an enemy convoy of four merchant vessels with six escorts had been sighted at 1130 hours, in 33°15' N, 21°35' E, steering 090° at medium speed. Galatea remained on hydrophone watch, but nothing was detected. Other signals followed with the same result. | ||||||||

Her return trip was known through ULTRA as of 21st June 1943. Sirena was then ordered to replace her, but apparently could not comply and was replaced by Beilul. | |
| 10 Jun 1943 | 1950 2041C (e) | (0) 359° - Stampalia - 7 miles. | At 1950 hours, Galatea was proceeding from Leros escorted out by a MAS boat, when she was shaken by an explosion followed by two more distant ones. This was an attack by the submarine HMS Taurus (Lieutenant Commander M.R.G. Wingfield, RN). At 2014C hours, the British submarine had sighted a U-boat escorted by a small vessel and an aircraft at a range of 10,000 yards. She closed submerged at high speed. At 2041C hours, HMS Taurus fired six torpedoes from 4,000 yards. They missed and exploded at the end of their run. This was the third attack by a British submarine that Galatea had avoided. She bore a charmed life! | |||||||

| 8. | Galatea (GT, N.71) | 7 Sep 1943 | 1452 | Naples | 11 Sep 1943 | 1732 | Bone | 775,8 | Sailed for patrol off Salerno, met HMS Eclipse at 2214 hours on 9th September in 40°15'N, 13°25'E and was directed to Bone. | |
| 9 Sep 1943 | 1545 | 40° 44'N, 13° 00'E | At 1545 hours, Galatea was proceeding with Benedetto Brin to Bone according to their Armistice instructions, when they were stopped by HMS MTB-266. The British boat ordered them to proceed to Palermo, but they refused to comply. The British MTB just followed them until HMS Eclipse joined them at 2126 hours and ordered them to Palermo. The two Italian submarines still refused to comply and torpedo tubes were readied. To avoid an incident, T.V. Cruciani came aboard HMS Eclipse to explain the situation and the British commanding officer finally allowed them to proceed to Bone. | |||||||
| Galatea (GT, N.71) | 14 Sep 1943 | 1458 | Bone | 16 Sep 1943 | 1037 | Malta | 318,5 | Passage Bone-Malta with Alagi, Giada, Platino, Marea, Menotti, Brin and Tuchese, escorted by the destroyer HMS Isis. | ||
