Career and sinking
Union spent much of her short career operating in the Mediterranean, where she sank the Italian merchant Pietro Querini. Her success was short-lived however. Union sailed from Malta at 1 o’clock on the morning of 14 July 1941 with orders to intercept a convoy north of Tripoli the following day. On 20 July 1941 she was depth charged and sunk with all hands during an attack on the convoy by the Шаблон:Ship south of Pantelleria. When Union failed to return to Malta she was reported overdue on 22 July 1941.[1][2]
