Schnellboot S-15 beim 55. Vorpostenflottille?

[Maurice Laarman]

Kann Jemand bestätigen das S-15 beim 55. Vorpostenflottille eingesetzt wurde? Verschiedene Quellen geben V5511 die name Moskito ex Senior. Dieses habe ich bisher gefunden:

Indienststellung 27.2.1937

1.9.1939 1e S-Bootsflottille
16.9.1940 zur schnellen U-Jagdgruppe
1941 zur 55 (V5511) und 51.VP Flottille
1945 US Beute
1.2.1946 Omgus
Juli 1947 an Dänemark T46

Später ausgeschlachtet/abgebrochen

Dank im voraus,

Hallo,
S-15:
7.41: to 55. V-Fl as V-5510.
3.42: Renumbered to V-5511.
1.6.44: transferred to 51. V-Fl. as S-15. NB-11 Moskito reused the V-5511 number.
10.5.45: Fahrbereit in Bergen.
When in 55. V-Fl., she still used S-15 as name, but had the flotilla number too.

Best regards,
Erling

Thank you Erling,

I was a bit amazed that even (old) S-Boats were used in Vorpostenflottillas.

Kind regards,

Maurice

Hello,
They were used as Ubootjagdgruppe, and for anti MTB operations, and more or less just administrative belonged to the KSW Westküste / Vp-flotilla.
Looks like they often were the private transport and toy for the Admiral Westküste

Best regards,
Erling

hello, Erling,

there´s a faint recall that they were employed sometimes in search operations against Norwegian resistance, as well ...
