History

The 23rd Flotilla was re-founded in September 1943 as a training Flotilla under the command of Korvkpt. Otto von Bülow. This flotilla trained the future U-boat commanders like the 24th Flotilla. Its history ended in March 1945, when the flotilla was disbanded.


The original 23rd flotilla was a combat flotilla operating in the Mediterranean out of Salamis, Greece.
