 During the first, in June 1942, she sank six small sailing vessels between 11 and 14 June, and proceeded to disembark SOE agents in Crete and receive a team of 15 New Zealand commandos.During the next patrol, from 31 August to 15 September, she unsuccessfully attacked an 8,000-ton oil carrier, and disembarked two mixed British-Greek commando teams at Rhodes, which succeeded in attacking the island's two airfields and destroying a large number of Axis aircraft in "Operation Anglo".Coming under the command of Lieutenant Nikolaos Roussen, the submarine went into another patrol in November, offloading men, including from SOE Xan Fielding, Arthur Reade, Niko Souris and Alec Tarves, and from ISLD Stello Papaderos together with equipment on southern Crete.
