Attacks on U-108 during this patrol

10 Feb 1943
At 16.15 hours, the boat was extensively damaged by 3 bombs from a British Gibraltar-based Catalina aircraft (RAF Sqdn 202 / N, pilot William Ogle-Skan) north of the Canaries. The damages to the bow torpedo tubes forced the Germans to abort the patrol the next day. (Sources: Ritschel)
