The crew of a few hours was almost at the bottom of the ocean, while the compartments were filled with poisonous gases from a damaged battery. And although they were eventually rescued, the health of each of them was inflicted huge damage as a result of which two died from gas poisoning.
Despite this, the submarine found fit for launching. During one of the first missions torpedo explosion killed eight crew members and officers. Soon, eyewitnesses reported that they had seen a ghost on a submarine.
