:nope: April 1940

U 48 reported 2 triple spreads in the evening on a large cruiser, no hits scored, 4 self detonators. THis report of failure, together with those of U 51 and U 25 give rise to extreme doubts as to the effectiveness of magnetic fuse in Zone O. The question of torpedo failure appears to threaten the success of the entire operation. The following reflections are given and relevant measures taken

On 11 April and during the night of 11/12 the following W/T messages were received:
