Surprise, surprise!!
As I headed for Lorient, the weather changed and we were bathed in sunlight and sparkling calm seas. "Full speed ahead , new course 355."
We found the convoy and approached it cautiously from behind. No one fired. So we started picking ships with the deckie. Sunk 4, three are on fire and may sink later. Only three ships left unharmed.
So far this convoy lost 3 tankers, 11 freighters, I black Swan, 2 corvettes--total 90,000 + tonnes.
