Left command of U-64 to a fellow officer after 18 patrols starting January 1 1940.
Now in command of U-200 IXD2 boat with orders to patrol grid GH21 in South Africa.
I took the whole crew of U-64 with me including Bernard who is performing his duties flawlessly.
It is March 6 1943 and we are about to set sail from Lorient.
I hope to to have a longer life than the RL U-200.
