Page "Chaleur Bay" Paragraph 36

* The bay was the site of the Baie des Chaleurs attack on German submarine U-536 in September 1943.

Canadian corvette HMCS Rimouski, equipped with an active camouflage system in the form of diffused lighting with projectors beaming light dimly on to its hull to match the faint glow of the night sky, stealthily approached the submarine.

However, a wrong signal sent from shore alerted the U-boat, which dove and escaped.
