I just remembered I read somewhere (always a valid reference:rotfl: ) that sometimes u-boats who ran out of torpedoes early were ordered to stay on station and report ships and weather for other boats until fuel required a return to port.
It wasn't in the last two books I read, so I could just be misremembering. Or hallucinating.
