Attacks on U-333 during this patrol
21 Mar 1944
The boat was spotted by Allied aircraft which in turn brought in the famous Support Group 2 (Cpt. Walker) which hunted the boat aggressively. Cremer placed the boat on the muddy button (131 feet) for 10 hours and although it turned out to be a problem to get the boat unstuck it eventually rose and once again Cremer escaped. (Sources: Blair, vol 2, page 496)
