Attacks on U-877 during this patrol

27 Nov 1944
While outbound with surface escorts the boat was attacked by Beaufighters from RAF Sqdn 489. The two depth charges that were dropped caused minor damage, but during the crash dive the boat lost her radar antenna - not a good thing at the start of a patrol. U-877 continued as ordered nonetheless. (Sources: Blair, vol 2, page 650)
