Overview
One of the last submarines of the Redoutable class was laid down in Saint-Nazaire under the name Casablanca. Under pressure from the French Navy Minister François Pietri, himself of Corsican origin, she was renamed Casabianca in honor of Luc-Julien-Joseph Casabianca, a hero of the Battle of the Nile. At the start of World War II, Casabianca escorted convoys, patrolled off Norway’s coast, then redeployed to the Mediterranean. On November 27, 1942, the day the bulk of France’s fleet was scuttled to avoid capture by the Germans, Casabianca fled to Algiers and joined the Free French Naval Forces. She actively participated in Allied operations in the Mediterranean, most notably during the liberation of Corsica in September 1943. For her service during World War II, Casabianca was awarded the French Resistance Medal and the Croix de Guerre. The submarine’s conning tower was installed as a memorial in the city of Bastia on Corsica.
