The wreck was located in 1951 during the search for the British submarine HMS Affray, which sank with all hands on 16 April, 1951 when her snorkel mast broke off near Alderney.
Men lost from U-boats Unlike many other U-boats, which during their service lost men due to accidents and various other causes, U-269 did not suffer any casualties (we know of) until the time of her loss.
