    The small Soviet submarine M-78 was sunk by the [Axis] submarine U-144 off Ventspils (known in German as Windau), but on 28 July, U-144 was itself sunk by a torpedo from the Soviet submarine Shch-307 in the western Gulf of Finland.

      fair enough, anyway, you probably cant really rescue anyone from a sinking submarine, but did the germans rescue soviet sailors when they sank soviet ships? there must’ve been a little bit of that too

        I found one exception:

        [T]he only proven survivors were the two sailors sent along to row the boats, Nikolai Sjirokov and Mikail Klimov. They were captured by [Axis] authorities at the end of March, freezing and starving. During the subsequent investigation in the vicinity of the landing site, the [Axis] found human bones, body parts and even a human head. What remained of the bodies could not be identified, and exactly how they died could not be established. Sjirokov and Klimov would eventually be brought to Oslo, where they were presented as cannibals in a press conference[.]

        The Axis was a little less courteous when it came to the hospital ship Armenia.
