P33
1936 - 1958: U Class
Believed to have been mined off Tripoli on the 18th August 1941. HMS P31 left Malta on 6th August 1941 for a patrol off Tripoli. Submarines HMS P32 and HMS Unique left at the same time and were in adjacent patrol areas. Both of these Submarines heard depth charging on 18th August coming from the area where Submarine P33 was patrolling. It is assumed that this depth charge attack was responsible for the loss of Submarine P33 with all hands.

Commonwealth War Graves Commission
A Tribute To Submariners
I have often looked for an opportunity of paying tribute to our submariners.
There is no branch of His Majesty's Forces which in this war has suffered the same proportion of total loss as our submarine service.
It is the most dangerous of all services.
That is perhaps the reason why the First Lord tells me that the entry into it is keenly sought by Officers and Men.
I feel sure the House would wish to testify its gratitude and admiration to our Submariners for their Skill - Courage and Devotion which has proved of inestimable value to the sustenance of our country.
Winston Churchill
