On this U-boat, my grandfather served as commander of the mine and artillery. The U-boat came in the evening of March 5, 1944 naval base Polyarny, and go to Kongsfjord. Back did not return, on the radio never came. In the Russia of her no data. What could happen?

hi,

one reliable source says http://www.uboat.net/allies/warships/ship/5114.html

The "Chronik des Seekriegs 1939-1945" says she was lost off Syltefjord on March, 10, 1944, in a German minefield.

We can gain knowledge about S-54 exact place and reason of sinking only if she would be discovered at bottom. Germans has no data about their loss.
