Died on my second patrol. Sunk 5 merchants this patrol for a total of 33k GRT. Total tonnage of this carreer was a small 70k GRT.

I got detected whilst lying in wait for a convoy to go over me. Was at 40m depth and idle. Anyway I couldn't go deeper than 140m because my hull was full off holes thanks to enemy aircrafts. Therefore I was a bit cautious, a bit too cautious, and only dived to 80m. Well they got me with DCs. I was badly damaged after a run and the second run finished me off.

As this was a 1941 carreer I'm eager to start again in the golden days of 1939.
