The trip starts at Port Said through the canal, a few lakes where there are DD's that you have to take out of play, at one of the pictures so there is a label "Mark" 1, "Mark" 2 (Land units) behind them are three DD as you can get away in periscope depth, otherwise it is a lot of water but no traffic further down the Red Sea before the Gulf Von Aden so there could be some commercial ships, this trip was in mid-1940, do it in 1941.1942, you get resistance from Egyptian patrol boats and aircraft, and any mines,
