What a balls up this was . Got in front of some big troop transports of the east coast of Britain . One escort forward of the convoy that I could see . Fired one torp at a troop transport on the far side of the convoy and waited for the big troop ship on the near side . The torp missed the far side troop ship and they immediately turned there search lights on including the DD . The convoy suddenly started turning away from me and some going in all directions . I fired 3 torps at the near troop ship and 2 were duds and 1 missed . To be continued .
