Well the enemy Trawler only really had a 'pea-shooter' on the fore deck and was fortunately a fair distance away so wasn't too accurate. I'm not sure how many hits we received, but the damage sustained was only minor and quickly repaired. All areas of the U-Boat was deemed normal and operational by the end of the patrol. We had 33.86% hull integrity once we reached Kiel. Does that mean 33% damage or 33% left of the hull?
One thing's for sure it was nerve-racking and I certainly wouldn't have surfaced if it was a Destroyer!
