On 14 April 1945, only 8-10 miles off the British coast line, the boat
was safely cruising at 200 feet when the commander, Schlitt, decided to
use the toilet without the help of a trained specialist.
Big mistake!
Something went wrong and when the specialist arrived he misunderstood
something and opened the wrong valve with the end results that large
amount of seawater got into the boat. The seawater reached the
batteries directly under the toilet causing chlorine gas to
form and the boat had to be surfaced immediately right under the enemy.
When the boat reached the surface they managed to blow clean air into
the boat but at the same time an aircraft bombed the boat causing
extensive damages leaving the boat unable to dive. Seeing the hopeless
situation Schlitt had no choice but to destroy his secret material and
abandon ship to safe his crew.
