The turning point in the Battle of the Atlantic in the Allies' favour and in fact May 1943 is known as 'Black May' as the Kriegsmarine lost 41 U-boats that month, 25% of its operational fleet. Admiral Donitz recalled his U-boats and declared the battle lost, though they did return with new weapons and tactics and the fight would continue right through to May 1945.
