German submarine U-964
German submarine ''U-964'' was a Type VIIC U-boat of Nazi Germany's ''Kriegsmarine'' built for service during World War II. A short-lived boat, ''U-964'' is most noted for being one of three new boats ordered by the ''Kriegsmarine'' to attack Convoy ON 206 in the Western Approaches. To do this, the three boats had to travel a long distance on the surface during daylight hours in a region patrolled by Allied aircraft. This had fatal consequences for all U-boats involved.
''U-964'' was built by the Blohm & Voss shipyards in Hamburg during 1942 as a Type VIIC boat designed to fight in the waters of the Northern Atlantic Ocean. Her construction was rapid and smooth, and following her completion in February 1943 she was taken for training and working-up patrols in the Baltic Sea and off the Norwegian coast. Her commander during this period was veteran submariner ''Kapitänleutnant'' Emmo Hummerjohann, who was experienced in combat operations and was still in charge when she departed Bergen, Norway in early October 1943 for her maiden combat patrol in the North Atlantic.
