ww2dbaseReginaldo Giuliani was launched in Dec 1939. After two war patrols in the Mediterranean Sea, she joined Bordeaux Sommergibile (BETASOM) based in Bordeaux, France in Sep 1940 and then sailed to Gdynia (German: Gotenhafen), occupied Poland in Mar 1941. Until Apr 1942, she was a training ship for Italian submarine officers and crewmen learning German submarine tactics. Returning to Bordeaux in May 1942 to resume war patrols, she would go on to sink three ships in the central Atlantic Ocean in Aug 1942, two British and one American. In Sep 1942, she was damaged by British aircraft, and entered Santander, Spain for repairs until Nov 1942. After conversion into a supply vessel, she set sail from Bordeaux in May 1943, carrying 130 tons of mercury for Japanese-controlled Singapore. When Italy capitulated in Sep 1943, she was seized by the Germans stationed at Singapore. Transferred to the German base at Batavia, Java, Dutch East Indies and renamed UIT-23, she set sail for France in Feb 1944 with 135 tons of rubber and 70 tons of tin aboard under the command of Oberleutnant zur See Werner Striegler. She was discovered and sunk in the Malacca Strait by British submarine HMS Tally-Ho by torpedoes; Striegler survived the sinking and was transferred to Penang, Straits Settlements to assume command of UIT-25, his previous post.

Reginaldo Giuliani Operational Timeline
| 1939年12月3日 | Reginaldo Giuliani was launched at the Cantieri navali Tosi di Taranto shipyard in Taranto, Puglia, Italy. |
| 1940年7月27日 | Alpino Bagnolini sighted a submarine off Cape Santa Maria de Leuca, Italy at 0215 hours, but lost contact shortly after. Around the same time, Reginaldo Giuliani also reported a submarine in the same area. Thus, it was possible that the two Italian submarines had sighted each other. At 1200 hours, Alpino Bagnolini arrived at Taranto, Italy at 1200 hours, ending her second war patrol. |
| 1940年8月29日 | Reginaldo Giuliani departed Italy. |
| 1940年9月10日 | Reginaldo Giuliani transited the Strait of Gibraltar. |
| 1940年9月30日 | Reginaldo Giuliani arrived at Bordeaux, France. |
| 1940年10月5日 | British submarine HMS Tigris spotted a group of Axis warships (Italian submarine Maggiore Baracca, Italian submarine Reginaldo Giuliani, German minesweeper M-9, German minesweeper M-13, and German auxiliary Cap Hadid) and fired four torpedoes at the distance of about 2,500 yards, about 20 miles west of the French coast at 0815 hours. All torpedoes missed the targets, but two of the torpedoes were detonated some distance after missing the targets. British commanding officer Lieutenant Commander Howard Bone had originally mistaken one of the German ships as a third submarine, thus even though all four torpedoes missed, having seeing only two submarines after the detonations Bone thought he had destroyed one enemy submarine. Maggiore Baracca arrived at Pauillac, France in the evening, ending her first war patrol. |
