Construction and career
Built as the Norwegian whaler Pol IX, she was captured on 14 January 1941 by the German auxiliary cruiser Pinguin. She was renamed Adjutant and used as a commerce raider. Captained by Adjutant Hemmer and used a first as a scout, she then was used as a minelayer in the South Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean.
On the night of 24–25 July 1941 the ship lay ten mines in the approaches to Lyttleton Harbour, New Zealand. She was not detected at all, and this action was not discovered until four years later when they were revealed by captured German documents.[1]
She was scuttled in the Pacific Ocean on 1 July 1941 by the German auxiliary cruiser Шаблон:Ship after suffering engine trouble off the Chatham Islands.
