[Exakt]

February 1 1940:

Very early in the morning, we have received a contact report about a large convoy, in grid AM75, heading NE at 4kts. I was glad when I received the report after the decryption, for we were on the East side of the grid and by all estimations, the convy would probably be about 30NM out. I plotted an interception course due West and went to periscope depth for a hydrophone check, since the visibility was poor at night. To my surprise I could hear multiple screws, too many to distinguish if it was a merchant or a warship at the moment. Then inched ever closer and closer and found out that it was escorted. Sneaked by them and entered a firing solution on a passenger/cargo, a british one. Fired 2 eels at it and they both impacted. dived to 80 meters, started reloading the two tubes that were fired. Escort ping me once so far, the passenger/cargo is still floating but is taking in water and has fires raging onboard. Currently shadowing the convoy and the escort still hasn't found me yet.
