U-35 crew member Theodor Schütt
Theodor Schütt was born on 14 August 1916.
U-35 on New Year's
Day, 1939, in Spain
(probably El Ferrol)
during the Spanish Civil War. On the dock: Gottlob Wilhelm Fischer,
unknown, Walter
Arnaschus, Johannes Martin. On board U-35:
Theodor Schütt, unknown, Ernst
Wensorra, Peter Schwarz, Johann van der Pütten, Paul
Fichte, Helmut Parthum, Erich
Herrmann. [47]

 On 12 October
1939, Theodor Schütt was awarded an Iron Cross
(second class) with the Chief Engineer Gerhard Stamer
for making successful repairs to U-35 on 21 September 1939 while sitting at the
bottom of the sea at 115 meters (377 feet). A British destroyer had dropped only one depth charge
(because, said the escort captain, contact was doubtful). That depth charge was so accurately placed that it knocked out one of U-35's periscopes and put the blower system out of action.
