His first submarine is HMS H44, which he took command from 12 March 1940. His mission with H44 is to do combat patrol at the North Sea.

Their story was documented in 'The Fighting Tenth: The Tenth Submarine Flotilla and the Siege of Malta' a 2003 book by John Wingate. On 5 February 1941, Upright made a torpedo attack to Italian convoy near Kerkenah, Tunisia. Sadly, the attack has failed and all four torpedoes fired miss its target. The hunt for enemy convoy continues, and on 23 February, Upright torpedoed and sunk the Italian merchant ship, SS Silvia Tripcovich.[5] Two days later, on 25 February, Upright attacking Italian convoy. Upright manages to torpedoed and sunk Italian cruiser Armando Diaz, however, they miss a bigger price, a destroyer.

The submarine then was renamed to HMS Graph. Norman commanded the Graph for one year and from his experiences, he gave valuable information to the Allies forces about construction, performance and weaponry of the standard Type VII-boat. After Graph, Norman commanded HMS Tuna and HMS Alcide, both a long range A-Class patrol submarines for the Pacific region.[2] Norman left the Submarine Service in 1947, and appointed at the Admiralty in London and later as Executive Officer of HMS Heron (now known as RNAS Yeovilton), a naval air station, where he learned to fly.
