Just for Fun; an officers observation

From: U-47
To: BdU

After a good patrol in AO95 the watch officer and I took notice to our Luftwaffe in action. We had spent our eels and finished our patrol grid taking notice of shipping for other patrols. Luck would have us spotting a small yet targetable convoy. ordered the boat to shadow duty as the convoy was reported. U-47 then shadowed the convoy in hopes to observe the Luftwaffe finish what the boat could not being out of torpedoes.
To our suprise our boys in the air found the convoy!
Who said they can't hit a barn in broad daylight? Such awfull distictions indeed. The boys in the air must have seprate prioritys however, as such it would seem to allow merchant and escorts to pass. But we can't have loose fishing boats wandering about can we?
