Impressions of my last patrol:

September '40...

we leave Brest at night escorted into the bay of biscay



We receive a convoy report heading towards Londonderry at west ireland

A big juicy convoy with only 3 escorts
Here my first attack:


Suddenly a destroyer is hit by a torpedo as I attack a merchant.
Now, I decide to kill all escorts!

My second pray:



Engines badly damaged and out of order:



Meanwhile, with only 1 escort left I decide to surface and sink some damaged merchants and a passenger liner:



It is nalmost night when I got the last escort, damaged he turns by and runs at 6 knots aside the convoy.



Now that night became day. Some sailors had to go swimming!



As my ammuniton is empty I have to leave the battlefield and head towards Brest:



Three days later we arrive Brest and got welcomed by our escort:



Result:

~102000 tons
