A Norwegian submariner who was based in Dundee during the Second World War has died.
Herman Eilertsen, who turned 90 in June, served on board the submarine Ula, which carried out 14 war patrols and operations behind enemy lines.
Mr Eilertsen arrived in Scotland after fleeing Norway in a fishing boat after the Nazi invasion. He landed at Lerwick in Shetland and from there was sent to London, where he enlisted in the Norwegian Navy. He was then trained in Burntisland before transferring to Dundee.
Mr Eilertsen served on board the Ula, one of three Norwegian boats with the 9th Submarine Flotilla attached to HMS Ambrose in Dundee.
In September 1943, Ula carried out Operation Venus, landing two agents in an isolated Norwegian fjord 250 miles north of the Arctic Circle. They sent back information that helped the Royal Navy sink the battle cruiser Scharnhorst.
Ula carried out a second cloak and dagger operation, known as Operation Epsom, in November 1943, and sank two ships off south-west Norway.
As well as helping the Allies to free Europe from Nazi tyranny, the crew of the Ula were also famous in Dundee for creating their own version of the Jolly Roger, made out of underwear that local legend says was liberated from a Dundee barmaid.
British, Dutch, Norwegian, Polish, Free French and even Russian submariners were all based in Dundee during the Second World War.
Mr Eilertsen met his wife Dorothea in Dundee and the couple settled in Monifieth.
He is survived by Mrs Eilertsen, seven children, 19 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
