Den 5. maj 1945 var 4 tyske U-både på vej mod Norge, hvor krigen endnu ikke var slut. Britiske fly ville standse denne trafik. De cirklede rundt om U-bådene og
en U-båd åbnede ild kl. 19.30. Piloten, F/Lt George William Hill på B24 KK299 foretog øjeblikkelig et angreb. Flyet kastede en bombe tæt på U-534 som fortalt i 
den lange version.

U-båden skød tilbage og B24 KK299 styrtede i havet nordøst for Anholt 3 sømil fra U-båden. U-534 sank omkring her.
De 11 flyvere omkom og 9 af dem blev aldrig fundet. (Kilde: FT 91-11-58)
