English: Oblique photograph taken from Consolidated Catalina Mark IVA, JV928 'Y', of No. 210 Squadron RAF during an attack on German type VIIC submarine U-361 (not U-347) west of the Lofoten Islands. After an initial attack in which the Catalina's depth charges failed to release, the captain, Flying Officer J.A. Cruickshank, made a second run from astern, through intense fire from the U-boat which killed the Navigator (Flying Officer J.C. Dickson) and seriously wounded Cruickshank and three other members of the crew. The photograph shows the splashes from the first of six DCs dropped on the second attack, landing astern of the U-boat which was making violent 'S' turns in an effort to escape. Machine gun fire from a gun housed in one of the Catalina's 'blisters' can also be seen at top left. The submarine was later confirmed sunk, and Cruickshank's accurate attack, and his gallantry in assisting the second pilot to fly the damaged aircraft back to base, despite his severe wounds, earned him Coastal Command's third Victoria Cross.
