November '39 - U-46 about 150kms off the coast of northern Spain and entering the Bay of Biscay after patrolling BE99. Expended 12 torpedoes for a mere 18,000 GRT. Plenty of lone merchants, but mainly small fry. Intend to plot a course through the bay heading in a northerly direction in the hope of encountering some more French merchants then home to Wilhelmshaven.
