Action Report:
Sunk British Large Merchant vessel in area BE4432. Our fuel remains in range of 75%-70%, torpedoes 10, deck type gun ammo is 100%, and the weather is overcast, no rain, visibility is reduced, and the wind is 15 mps-253*.
Note: One of the three torpedoes fired at this merchant ship was a erratic running, wild runaway T I (G7a), and did not even come close to the target.
