Well Brag, I think you'll be pleased that I report U94 made it safely home. With the extensive damage to the boat, she was laid up in Lorient for 2 months while repairs were effected, and for some odd reason, BDU saw fit to award me the highest of the high in medals, the Knights Cross with Golden Oak leaves, Swords, and Diamonds....why is beyond me as the patrol was an utter disaster!!!!!
I shall avoid the Irish sea from now on, skirting round the west of Ireland to reach any patrol grids north of Britain. Its now Feb 1941, and from what I gather, shallow waters from now on are a definite killer for any Uboat crew!!!!
But, on the bright side, U94 survived to fight again another day!!!
