Hi, Jan.

Do you have any info at all on this flotilla? I have never heard of it before, and checking all of my texts, and online resources, no one mentions at 17th at all.

Thanks!

The correct term would be Flotille (Flotilla), not Flotte (Fleet).

17 Unterseebootsflotille was formed only on paper. No boats were ever allocated to it and it never became operational. Same applies to 15 and 16 U-Flotillen.
