22 September, 1943
Off of the northern tip of Madagascar, we encounter yet
another Catalina. Once again, we are ready for him. While he scored some hits on us, there is some damage to a bulhead, but that should be easily fixed, no injuries and my boys chalk up another one.
Leutnant zur See Glockner is back on station and will be fine, as will the other men that have been injured. Miraculously, we haven't lost a soul yet. We may be beat up, but we are certainly not beat down. Then men's spirits are high. This isn't over yet.
