Hello,
Normaly, the school tactical symbol is for U 48. But i have a doubt ! U 48 had some different details : The hole for the radio wire attach was smaler on U 48. The hole for the passage of the gun shells just under the wave deflector, was bigger on U 48.
Look at here :

Hi Nobby,
no Blohm & Voss at all! Its U 254 entering Brest with its stern diving cell damaged by air attack on 4 August 1942, causing the boat to lie deep in the water.

PS: Reds still going strong!
