It's July 25th 1942 - You'r sitting in your BdU office going over the mornings signals.
Suddenly you fall over a signal that will have significance for the boats going out of St. Nazaire. The signal is from U-48 one of the most successfull boats in the war passed, that left St.N the other day. The odd thing is that its not coded like all u-boat signals are.
"from U48 to BdU
BF55, contact ASW group, 6 Black Swan types, trying to escape in morning fog. Forced to dive now.Kpt Mav"
Thats the first time the British has operated in the Biscay with such a heavy force. Noone has yet lived to tell how the ASW groups actualy operate.
For now you can only sit back and hope that U-48 will live to tell.....
